I'm trying to find an address that I know can only hold 4 possible values.
I don't know what these values are, and I'm not sure how to find this address.

I've tried saving scans from all four states and comparing them to each other
to exclude all other memory addresses but I can't seem to narrow it down to less than ~5000 addresses.

For clarity, I want to read the state of the slots in a slot machine minigame.

When I pause the game and advance frame by frame I can see that a lot of the addresses cycle through way more than 4 values, so I suspect they are related to random number generation.

Is there a way to search for addresses that only cycle through X amount of values?

Get creative with changed/unchanged value scans. More specifically, keep on spinning until the slots are back to where they were when you last scanned, and then scan for "unchanged value". What you're asking for won't help you any more than that- all it would do is speed up the process of finding it. Regardless, it would be possible to make a Lua script that could do this. I'm not going to write it for you because it's superfluous, but someone else may.
