Hi, im experiencing a possible bug, where this code:

Code:
[ENABLE]
{$lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end
local PlayerXCoord = getAddress"[PlayerX]"
local WaypointXCoord = getAddress'[["Game.exe"+1CD8EB8]+D0]+4B8'
writeFloat(PlayerXCoord+0, readFloat(WaypointXCoord+0))
writeFloat(PlayerXCoord+4, readFloat(WaypointXCoord+4))
writeFloat(PlayerXCoord+8, -200)
local PlayerX=AddressList['X PTR']
PlayerX.Active=true
local PlayerY=AddressList['Y PTR']
PlayerY.Active=true
local PlayerZ=AddressList['Z PTR']
PlayerZ.Active=true
local t=createTimer()
t.Interval=3000
t.OnTimer=function()
  memrec.Active=false
  t.destroy()
end
PlayerX.Active=false
PlayerY.Active=false
PlayerZ.Active=false
[DISABLE]


Grabs a coordinate from the waypoint, for example:
-1699.386475
and writes that value into PlayerX+4
which becomes
386475

It's like it only copies the value past the decimal point.
Only i restart CE it works fine again.
What could cause this? Is it an error in the code?
X coordinate acts up too, sometimes.

try cleaning your code first.
e.g all the addresslist part can go as you activate and imeadiately deactivate

and try using writeInteger(xxxx,readInteger(xxx)) instead. Both types are 4 bytes anyhow


it's also possible the write happens at the same time the game is writing
