Regards.

Is there a way to create within CE table a script/file with defines/code that will be available to all the scripts within the same CE table?

AA's include(defines_file.CEA) line in all the scripts method works, but it requires additional CEA file to be present in the same directory as the main CT file, and I would like to avoid having two or more separate files per one CE table.

Thanks.

easiest is just put the defines_file in the first entry of your table which once checked shows all other cheats

else try a lua block and a lua script in the main code of your table

main table lua code:
Code:

definesloaded=false
function registerDefines()
  if definesloaded==false then
   definesloaded=autoAssemble([[
 //your code
]])
  end
end


and in your cheat entries with aa script then have as first code:
Code:

{$lua}
registerDefines()
{$asm}

Thanks Dark Byte, but I am not sure I understand this...

I do have 1st "main" script that allows activation of other scripts, but if I put defines there and activate this "main" script - other scripts still do not "see" those defines and would not activate.

Is there something I am missing? I have also tried adding defines.CEA file to my CE table (Table > Add file) and using include(defines.CEA) in table scripts, but include does not see defines.CEA attached to the table.

make sure you use registersymbol for anything you want accessible to other scripts, the autoAssemble will make sure it exists but it's not much different from just adding it to the table and manually enabling it before anything else.

If it's just a bunch of defines, for idk offsets because you haven't setup a structure, not aobscans/allocs/code then you might want something like
Code:
-- have defines in 1 place
function getDefines()
  return [[
   //your code
  ]]
end


Code:
{$lua}
return registerDefines() -- returned string used as AA code in this location
{$asm}

So, if I understood correctly, beside lua or registersymbol for each define, there is no elegant AA way to have global defines in each (sub)script.

OK.

How do you setup/register a structure?

...or even better (more useful): is there a way and how do you use in AA structures defined in Structure dissect window?

For example... If I have structure like this:



...and have the Unit structure address in RCX... How do I access Unit.state.hp?

Thanks for help.

registersymbol IS a global

also, if you have setup a structure, you can reference offsets in it using structurename.elementname

so in your case, assuming you also have defined state as a separate structure
Code:

push rax
mov rax,[rcx+Unit.state]
mov [rax+State.hp],(float)1
pop rax

If it is for field usage of mono class, may try this script, need ce 6.7.
The chain of fields should only work for class not structure.
There is unknown bug which somehow disappeared when I comment out some extra script, not sure it is bug free.

Code:

local function findClass(class)
  if type(class)=='string' then
    local n,c = '',class
    if class:find":" then n,c = class:match"^(.-):(.*)"end
    class =  mono_findClass(n,c)
  end
  return class
end

local function field2class(f)
  if f.monotype == MONO_TYPE_CLASS then
    return mono_type_getClass(f.field)
  end
end
local function class2field(class)
  local fs,field = mono_class_enumFields(findClass(class)),{}
  for i=1,#fs do
    local fi = fs[i]
    field[fi.name] = fi
  end
  return field
end

local autofield
autofield= {
  __len = function(me)return rawget(me,me).offset end,
  __bnot = function(me)return rawget(me,me).offset end,
  __index = function(self,k)
    me = rawget(self,self)
    if me.class and not me.field then
      me.class = findClass(me.class)
      me.field = class2field(me.class)
    end
    local f = me.field[k]
    if not f then return end
    local out = {offset = f.offset, class = field2class(f) }
    if out.class then
      out.field = class2field(out.class)
    end
    local this = {}
    this[this] = out
    return setmetatable(this,autofield)
end}

function monoAutoField(class)
  if LaunchMonoDataCollector()==0 then return end
  local self = {}
  self[self] = {class=class}
  return setmetatable(self,autofield)
end


usage:
make a global lua variable for the target class like:
Code:

--sample game, Practical Flee
UM = monoAutoField"UnitManager"

then in AA, it can be use as:
Code:

mov  esi,[edi+$#UM.latheWeapon]   //  edi is base of class UnitManager
mov  ebx,[esi+$#UM.latheWeapon.ammo] // esi is base of field latheWeapon, which is of class LatheWeapon

In memory record, it can be set as pointer address
offset 0: #UM.latheWeapon.ammo
offset 1: #UM.latheWeapon
base: some_base
(ie, no $)

'#'(length) can be replace with '~' (bitwise not), they are necessary to duel behavior of the field chain both as meta table and number.

bye~
