What is wrong with this bit of code. I get an different location than the table entry of DDC151A , returns 0B454290
Code:
local addresslist = getAddressList()
   maxmp1e = addresslist.getMemoryRecordByDescription("1st Max MP")
   print (maxmp1e)

You're printing the memory record object itself. You need to set your variable to it's address, or print the MR's address.

https://wiki.cheatengine.org/index.php?title=Lua:Class:MemoryRecord

Code:
local addresslist = getAddressList()
maxmp1e = addresslist.getMemoryRecordByDescription("1st Max MP").Address
print (maxmp1e)


Code:
local addresslist = getAddressList()
maxmp1e = addresslist.getMemoryRecordByDescription("1st Max MP")
print (maxmp1e.Address)

You're printing a userdata object.

This prints the address:
Code:
print(maxmp1e.Address)

Ok to both and the address prints correctly, that brings up another question then I have set two var one for cur and this one for max set in the same manner. Later in the function, I have
Code:
   if curmp1e ~= maxmp1e then
      cur1e = max1e
   end
to set the cur to what ever the max is and it isn't working so would the correct way be something like this
Code:
max1e.address = addresslist.getMemoryRocordByDescription("1st Max MP")

…
if cur1e.value ~= max1e.value then
cur1e.value = max1e.value
?

Yeah that should work, the main to keep in mind is that's a string comparison.
