No good:

local CharNameLength = readInteger("[[[ rbxAddress + 30] + 28] + 10] + 10"); -- this one turns the rbxAddress variable into literal string ..


local CharNameLength = readInteger('[[[' .. rbxAddress .. '+ 30] + 28] + 10] + 10');


this works on the address table:
[[[816F4A80 + 30] + 28] + 10] + 10 as address for 4 byte integer ..

EDIT1:
this 1 worked so I'll try printf next
CharNameLength = readInteger("[[[816F4A80 + 30] + 28] + 10] + 10");

EDIT2:

this worked
local CharNameLength = readInteger(string.format("[[[%10X+ 30] + 28] + 10] + 10",rbxAddress));

EDIT3:

and this reads me unicode string

local CharNameLength = readInteger(string.format("[[[%10X+ 30] + 28] + 10] + 10",rbxAddress));
local zCharName = readString(string.format("[[[%10X+ 30] + 28] + 10] + 14",rbxAddress), CharNameLength * 2, 1);
