i have an asm script that alters two sections of code. One pulls and stores a value of something im targeting, the other pulls everything in the area.

My first compare is testing if a buton is held down. If its just that then i can easily toggle an effect on everything in the area. If i try to add a second compare after that button toggle then it just crashes. Whether i make it point toward the stored target value or not. I did a simple compare to 0 and it still crashes.

Any idea why just adding a second compare would do that?

Edit: Oddly swapping the compares around made it not crash. Any idea why?

It's hard to say without seeing the code. Assuming everything is correct, the order of the compare should not matter.

Could you give full AA script, not only a part?

The most often made mistake is not having popfd/popad in all possible outcomes

and proper order:

GOOD:
pushfd
pushad

popad
popfd

WRONG:
pushfd
pushad

popfd
popad

As already suggested, the only thing that comes to mind is improper use of popfd/popad. Also, seeing the entire script would be preferable.
