I'm trying to use
readBytes(address,bytecount, ReturnAsTable )

but IDK what does ReturnAsTable means

Quote:

it will return a table instead of multiple bytes

another thing

Code:

print(readBytes('0018F6AC',80));

this code give me Script Error:not enough memory
while I want to read all bytes like ce do in the address list
and the output in hex .

and if you got time build loop that read this address every 1 sec because I still bad in lua .

readBytes('0018F6AC',80) will pass 80 arguments to the print function. This is why you get "not enough memory".

This should work:

Code:

print( table.concat(readBytes('0018F6AC', 80, true), ' ') )

For hexadecimal:

Code:

decByteString = table.concat(readBytes('0018F6AC', 80, true), ' ')
hexByteString = decByteString:gsub('%S+',function (c) return string.format('%02X',c) end)

print( hexByteString )
