My problem is pretty simple, in what way can u communicate between lua and assembly?

I'm pretty new to programming in cheat engine, I can program in LUA, but I've never tried to program in Assembly.

Is there some kind of specialized code to send a value from Assembly to LUA and then send it back from LUA?

Some info on the subject would be nice. Question

I tried running this simple code, but it only gave me errors.
Here's the code I tried out:
Code:

newmem:
{$lua}
--Lua code
print(rbp)
{$asm}
code:
  mov [rax], rbp
  mov eax,[rsi]
  jmp return

INJECT:
  jmp newmem
return:
registersymbol(INJECT)

{$lua} blocks in an AA script are run only once when the script is assembled. They aren't run every time the code in newmem is run.

Read this topic for an example of how to call a CE Lua function from another process:
