I have a large list of pointers for a memory address that is a single byte Boolean value. Is there a way to scan the pointers down by a SINGLE byte value? it seems severely limiting that "byte" isn't offered as a choice in the dropdown list.
It's difficult to get an actual address that the value is currently in-game since the most I can get it narrowed down by is 30 possible values which all mirror each other. running down through each of the 30 possibilities for each of the 30 pointer scans that I did is... alot of trial and error.

If it's only for rescans, try the lua filter option.
I've never tried it but something like this (warning: I didn't check this code, you might have to fix it):

VERY helpful! Thanks so much for passing along that little gem. I feel much more able to tackle a few other pointers I was trying to find now that I've seen the language in use for a simple purpose.
it didn't make the scans any slower, but I was only scanning 16k or so possibilities, so it's really hard to say either way.

Thanks so much again!
