I'm trying to do a script that changes a value to 0 and freeze it when the script is enabled and that changes to 1 when script is diasbled.

Here is my script:

Code:

[ENABLE]
{$lua}
-- Function to check and set the value to 0 if it equals 1
function checkValue()
local value = readInteger(0x28C106A5F60)
print("Current Value: ", value) -- Debugging output to see the current value
if value == 1 then
print("Changing value to 0") -- Debugging output to confirm the change is being attempted
writeInteger(0x28C106A5F60, 0)
end
end

-- Create a timer that checks the value every 50ms
valTimer = createTimer(MainForm, false)
valTimer.Interval = 50 -- Set interval to 50ms
valTimer.OnTimer = checkValue
valTimer.Enabled = true
{$asm}

[DISABLE]
{$lua}
-- Disable the timer created during the enable phase
if valTimer ~= nil then
valTimer.Enabled = false
valTimer.destroy()
valTimer = nil
end

-- Optionally, reset the value to 1 when the cheat is disabled
writeInteger(0x28C106A5F60, 1)
{$asm}

It works well but i want to make it work by using pointers not a simple address.

Has any of you an idea of how I could do that ?
Note: It's my first time here so sorry if i dont explain smth very well.

Code:

{$lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end

if valTimer then
valTimer.destroy()
valTimer = nil
end

[ENABLE]
valTimer = createTimer(MainForm)
valTimer.Interval = 50
valTimer.OnTimer = function(t)
local addr = getAddressSafe'[[game.exe+1234]+5C]+8'
if not addr then return end -- pointer path not valid

if readInteger(addr) == 1 then
writeInteger(addr, 0)
end
end

[DISABLE]
local addr = getAddressSafe'[[game.exe+1234]+5C]+8'
if addr then
writeInteger(addr, 1)
end
