Cheat Engine

[RobertDolani]

I was trying to change the coordinates of my character in a 2D game (make my character walks automatically), but I got some trouble with that. I found with cheat engine the value who says "go to coordinate X". But when I lock the value for this coordinate, the character doesn't move to coordinate X until I try to move it manually with my mouse (not necessarily to X, but just left-click to any position near me). Seems like that the left-click of my mouse is a "trigger" that makes the character walks. Anyone experienced something similar and know how to solve it?

Changing character coordinates and moving the character automatically are two, different things.

By changing coordinates, you are essentially teleporting the object/character to the new location.

Getting a character to travel to the new coordinates using in-game functions involves not only telling the game where to go, but initializing those functions.

Depending on what your goal is, will determine the best approach.

If you simply want to teleport, then you will likely need to find a different address to work with. If you want the character to walk to a specific set of coordinates, then you probably have what you need already, and now you just need to simulate a mouse click. You can use LUA or assembly for this.

That's assuming the game has navmeshes and a navigation system implemented. Explicit teleporation is the far simpler method here, wouldn't you agree?

I mean, there are ways to achieve it like ++METHOS says, manually sending the navigation points over a period of time to simulate movement.

I appreciate the replies. I want the character to move itself automatically, i.e, I want to simulate a mouse-click. I'm new at Cheat Engine, how can I simulate a mouse-click to a given coordinate with Lua or assembly? I already have the coordinates X,Y where I am and the coordinates X,Y to move (these coordinates are in-game coordinates, not in terms of my screen or something else). I have another question too: I'd like the hack to work when I'm doing other things on my laptop, so would be the simulation of the mouse-click a problem?

As ++METHOS mentioned

"Getting a character to travel to the new coordinates using in-game functions involves not only telling the game where to go, but initializing those functions.",

I think the problem here is how to initialize the function for walking. Is there a way to initialize this function manually? Or this is far more complex than just simulate a mouse-click?

Thanks for helping me as well, I am new here too. I am learning.

I want the character to keep moving around an area and attacking monsters. But let's focus only in the character movement. At the moment, I'm using cheat engine to only get the pointer addresses. Then I'm using pymen library in Python to change these values. For example, I can easily tell Python to change the coordinates where my character have to go. But as you told before, it's necessary to activate the function for walking too. Is it possible?

[++METHOS]

Is what possible?

Before, you mentioned that the character will move to the new location automatically when you click your mouse. So, simulating a mouse click should initialize any walking function, no?

I recall Geri (God bless his soul) made a table for Angry Birds to control the projectile (bird) you launch.
Might be worth a shot looking it up.

i have exactly the same problem as the author, i am developing a bot for pxg(a tibia mod), i got the destination coordinates in memory, and it only moves to them, if there is a mouse click, and that it's bad i wish it moved automatically
