When you're creating tables and posting them on the internet, you may sometimes encounter users that have never used cheat engine or computers before.

Trying to explain them how to open a process can be painful sometimes (instead of clicking the computer, they open a command prompt and delete their windows folder)
to make things easier for them here is a small snippet of code you can add to your auto assembler scripts, or first script, to help them out:

Code:

{$lua}
local targetprocess="processname.exe" --replace with your target
if readInteger(targetprocess)==nil then --failed reading the memory of the main process module
  if openProcess(targetprocess)==nil then
    messageDialog("I'm sorry, but the game needs to be running to be able to use this feature", mtError, mbOk)
    error();
  end
end
{$asm}


an example of a script that uses it:
Code:

{$lua}
local targetprocess="tutorial-i386.exe" --replace with your target
if readInteger(targetprocess)==nil then --failed reading the memory of the main process module
  if openProcess(targetprocess)==nil then
    messageDialog("I'm sorry, but the game needs to be running to be able to use this feature", mtError, mbOk)
    error();
  end
end
{$asm}
