So I'm working with a pretty old game written in Python and made in Panda3D. I'm trying to find a writable position address.

Doing Float Unknown initial/increased/decreased/unchanged etc I get one valid position value, which is not writable. No matter how I rescan, I can't seem to find any other values other than this one. So am I not scanning right or something? Assuming this is a read-only value, I went to the debugger to see what's writing to it. There was only one result that appeared when I move.

Code:
010A5687 - 8B 08  - mov ecx,[eax]
010A5689 - 8B 06  - mov eax,[esi]
010A568B - 89 01  - mov [ecx],eax <<
010A568D - 8D 43 38  - lea eax,[ebx+38]
010A5690 - 50 - push eax

EAX=C45E462A
EBX=07A6FB38
ECX=07A6FB70
EDX=05C956C0
ESI=00CFEEB4
EDI=0000000B
ESP=00CFEDC8
EBP=00CFEEB4
EIP=010A568D


So would eax be the value I'm looking for? I tried following the assembly, I may have messed up, but it lead me to a pointer that was of no use.

How would I go about finding a writable position address, is there anything I can try?

Not sure what you mean by not writeable. Have you tried changing the value of eax before it's written to that address?
