I'm trying to change a value using a script for the game Vertical Kingdom. I can change the value manually, but when I follow the tutorial to change the value with a script, the game gives me a fatal error as soon as the value changes.

I'm not quite sure what I'm doing, so I could use some help.

The `return` label isn't aligned. The original code is 6 bytes, and the jump is 5 bytes. You need a single `nop` to align it properly. Don't delete stuff randomly from the code the "Full Injection" template generates. If you didn't use the template, start doing so. There's several small details like this you'll miss.

You didn't execute the original code. I'm not sure if that's intentional or not, but it's usually important.

Are you sure r11 is a valid pointer at this injection point? If r11+0x14 isn't a valid address, that's going to crash.

Maybe the original code and/or your new code is writing to more addresses than you think. Right click the instructions in the disassembler -> "Find out what addresses this instruction accesses"

You shouldn't delete the comment at the bottom that gets generated with the "Full injection" and "AOB injection" templates. The code around the injection point is useful for others to help you and for anyone to update the script in the future should it ever break.

Hmm, okay. Where can I find information about return label alignment? I deleted the 'nop' because it wasn't present in the screenshot examples.

I'm unsure what you mean by this, how do I execute the original code?

I have no clue whether r11 is a valid pointer at this injection point, I just used what the template generated. Some more information on this would be appreciated.

No, I know that for sure, I checked and there's only 1 address this code is writing to.

I only deleted that while I was trying to work out how the auto assembler works, but I'll keep that in mind in future, thank you.

Edit:
I just added the 'nop' now, and now instead of an error message popping up saying 'Fatal Error!' it just freezes then crashes.

I'm trying to change a resource value here, and when I use the code I've written it doesn't change, but when I do an action that uses that resource, that's when it crashes.

Maybe I should be doing something differently?

I've also added back the generated injection code information back into the original post.
