Hello People!

I am using Cheat Engine since 5.x version and I am very very surprised that for this very long time nobody has thought about introducing such convenience as the possibility of undoing the introduced changes on the Cheat Engine main screen.

What am I talking about? I will explain it to you!


You made for example 3 cheat tables for random game. Then you want to merge these tables in one cheat table. Or you are in the moment of making new cheat table in CHEAT ENGINE tool and you ended making new cheat table but you didn't save it because you want already merge it with old cheat table, you are opening old cheat table and you are getting information about:

DO YOU WISH TO MERGE THE CURRENT TABLE WITH THIS TABLE?

Of course you need to press YES, but sometimes by accident you can press NO and then... what? YOU ARE LOSING THEN EVERYTHING! Without any possibility to turn back your changes!!!!

This is VERY IMPORTANT to me because we all know that everybody sometimes makes mistakes so we need an option for example like CTRL+Z to restore changes from our mistakes - please add an option like that in the new update of Cheat Engine - this is very important - and you can set a limit for RESTORING CHANGES to 10 times for example - that CHEAT ENGINE tool will remember, save and restore all changes to 10 times.

What do you think about that ??

Please comment, I think this is VERY VERY IMPORTANT CASE.

Best Regards,
MatZet.

I also learnt myself saving all the time my work now but sometimes it really happens to me to forget about saving my work and I am losing all my work...

I am waiting for author of CE to his answer - is it hard to implement such a possibility to CE or not?

Best Regards,
MatZet.

it can be done, and it shouldnt be a hard task for db.

maybe preserving couple megabytes in memory for caching the address-list / scripts, increase cache bytes as more entries being added.
(no need to increase CE's memory usage for such thing, so ...)

after all:
- it can be useful, but we dont need it.
- instead an auto-save whenever an entry is added, but dont auto-save when removed.

the auto-save will have to be saving to a temporary file somewhere else as i only save to commit completed cheats. i wouldn't want some of debugging entries and trial and error addresses to get saved into my last commited revision.

You first get a message saying "You haven't saved your current table, save now ?" That was the first of the two questions you could have clicked yes on to prevent data loss

As for clicking "no" erasing everything on CE is normal. It puts CE in a clean state. It clears the buffers, which includes history and all related things. Which is exactly what the user wants when he/she clicks that option.
Leaving a history of the previous table, allowing ctrl+z to accidentally fill the table with old stuff is quite annoying to the average user

It's like having an undo function for shift deleting files in windows. You shift delete it so it doesn't get send to the trashcan
