This comes up a lot for me, I like scripts to use these functions to be more resilient in the face of updates when the offsets might change. Some games have a lot of fields that CE mono reports like '<ResearchCost>k__BackingField'. This will replace those:

Code:
{$lua}
-- this replaces GETMONOSTRUCT(RecipeEntity)
return monoAA_GETMONOSTRUCT("RecipeEntity"):gsub("<([a-zA-Z0-9]+)>k__BackingField", "%1")
{$asm}
[/code]

Why'd you replace those? They are backing fields Wink
