 |
|
Is there a way to close the current cheat table without deleting the entries (since autosave will overwrite the original file)?
The cheat table contains addresses/scripts, comments and code list entries.
I think because this feature doesn't exist to my knowledge, someone is going to tell me to create an empty "cheattable.ct" in CE dir and call it when I want to close my cheat table using loadTable()
Tell me if there is another way thank you

autosave doesn't overwrite the original file. it saves it in "%localAppData%\Cheat Engine Autosave"
and yeah, just open an empty table

Okay, this is how I did it:
| Code: | function closeCurrentCT()
local filename = os.getenv("USERPROFILE").."\\Documents\\Empty.CT"
local file = io.open(filename, "w")
if file then
file:close()
--messageDialog("Success", "Empty cheat table has been created!", 2)
loadTable(filename)
os.remove(filename)
--messageDialog("Success", "File has been remved!", 2)
end
end |

This may be the minimum code to 'load' an empty table (without saving current table?)
| Code: |
loadTable(createStringStream'<CheatTable></CheatTable>',false, true)
|
This make an menu item in File Menu to use it , can be save in autorun :
| Code: |
local mf = MainForm
local fileMi = mf.Menu.Items[0] -- files menu
if not fileMi._mi_LoadEmptyCT_ and fileMi.Count > 2 then
local mi = createMenuItem(fileMi)
mi.Name = '_mi_LoadEmptyCT_'
mi.Caption = 'load Empty CT'
mi.OnClick = function()loadTable(createStringStream'<CheatTable></CheatTable>',false, true)end
fileMi.insert(fileMi.Count-2,mi)
end
|
Only that the empty table seems don't clear the saved symbolist, <del>clear dissect data structures tho.</del>, dissect data and codelist.
UPDATE: fixed.

I was almost going to say that's perfect but upon testing, it doesn't clear the codelist. Thank you that was a good one really but since I want a perfect solution I'll stick to my approach
THANK YOU THAT ACTUALLY MADE ME FIND THIS WAY:
This will clear everything
And if you combine it with this:
| Code: | MainForm.actOpen.OnExecute=function()
if MainForm.OpenDialog1.execute() then
loadTable(MainForm.OpenDialog1.FileName)
end
end |
You would never get the prompt of "Do want to merge CTs" again
