 |
|
This is a Unity game.
Why does this function call return extra characters after "Tenchi Sword"?
The call | Code: | | readString(0x4F020C, 22, true) |
returns "Tenchi Swor" (Last character missing).
-> Look at the dump, not the disassembler.

use upper limit of 1000 instead of 24. i'm guessing 24 bytes terminates right between two characters, on the null separator, which returns the ?. 1000 upper limit reads the entire string until the null terminator, so don't worry about reading past the end.

it's a bug.
In thise case I think size 25 is recommended. (so it's 0 terminator is also copied which bypasses the bug)
(fixed on github)

I'll add 2 bytes to the length argument, should be enough, thanks.
