So I was wondering what are the other use of CE other than for getting an upper hand in gaming in general?
Maybe some use around the internet...

I've seen it being used to change the FOV in games and an occasional fix/bypass for bugs in other games (e.g conversation bug in DAI)
And of course the freeze/fly mode where you can fly around in the game while it's frozen and take screenshots

I made an example of partially unpacking UPX with Cheat Engine as well when the Lua engine was first added. Since it does have a full debugger / disassembler you can do quite a lot with CE outside of game hacking alone.

I use it for data reading in MMOs (to find all those hidden stats the client won't show you) and like mentioned above, for camera editing (placement, zoom limits, FOV and stuff). It's great for data gathering since you can see what's actually in RAM and not just what the client may or may not decide to show you in text on-screen.

Information like that is stored on the server and cannot be altered other then visually on your end. Anything you change with the post will not be changed on the server.
