I only use Cheat Engine for one thing, and that is to play a certain game slower than normal. So I put this in main.lua:

Code:

openProcess("lf2.exe")
speedhack_setSpeed(0.2)

Apparently main.lua is executed too early though, because the code does what it's supposed to do when I execute it using "Show Cheat Table Lua Script", but doesn't do anything when Cheat Engine starts. Is there some way to delay its execution, like a hook?

Try doing something like this instead with the auto attach list:

Code:

local attachList = getAutoAttachList();
stringlist_add( attachList, "lf2.exe" );

function onOpenProcess( processid )
speedhack_setSpeed( 0.2 );
end
