Cheat Engine

I don't know if it is a bug or a feature, but what is the rationale for user symbols being discarded if one makes mistake of loading Cheat Table before attaching to a process. For example I always like to have quick translation from IDA addresses to CE addresses i.e. not having to write exec name all the time, so I define symbol X = programName.exe. So if I have address in IDA =123456, I go to CE and press CTRL+G and then I write X+123456. If it is discarded I have to redefine this symbol again.

It is even worse when I debug stuff and figure out what some function does; I make a name for it: DoSomething = programName.exe+123456.
When I later make a run in which I do not use those symbols, but make change to cheat table and overwrite the original file, this work is all lost.

Userdefined symbols are stored in the cheat table. Loading a table will clear it. Although i guess merge would be better if asked

What I meant is that if I start CE for the first time (so there are no symbols) and load table which contains them before attaching to process, they are being purged. I assume CE checks whether those symbols are valid and since there is no process "active", every symbol which points to that process base address is invalid.

EDIT: Although as I think about this, I see a potential of creating a big mess after couple of "loads" if those purges do not occur. So I am thinking about workaround.
Is there a way to define a symbol pointing to process base address in AutoAssembly scripts? Because I noticed those symbols never gets purged.
Sth like this, but working, because this doesn't:
