 |

Greetings. First time poster here.
I am currently playing around with Cheat Engine and its LUA support and have just a couple of probably noobish questions (still trying to get my head around this language)
Currently I'm trying to populate my table through a lua script. I can get the correct address so for now that is not an issue, but I fail to add certain things from inside the script.
Assume that mymemoryrecord is correctly pointing to a Cheat Table entry.
The first on is just a minor thing: I can't seem to create the equivalent of "Right Click->Create Header", a memoryrecord that would simply serve as a header with no address or any other data.
Tried several things, mymemoryrecord.Type seems to not be the answer as both a normal single Byte memoryrecord and a manually created header have Type set as 0 (vtByte).
The second one is a bit bigger. I am trying to create an entry that will hold an Array of Bytes. I succesfully managed to create that entry, and it was correctly updated to the correct address and Type, the problem is the size, it's always 0. I can't find out how to change it from inside the script. According to main.lua
| Code: | If the type is vtByteArray then the following propertes are available
Aob.Size : Number of bytes |
but I do not understand this. mymemoryrecord.Aob does not exist and neither does mymemoryrecord.Size or mymemoryrecord.Length. I also checked mymemoryrecord.Options but it's empty.
Cheers for your time.
Oh, and I'm currently using Cheat Engine 6.3. |

It's undocumented, but you can do this to make an entry a groupheader:
| Code: |
mymemoryrecord.IsGroupHeader=true
|
for the aob.Size thing it looks like that's a bug
Luckily, you can use the fallback routine memoryrecord_aob_setSize(mr, size)
e.g:
| Code: |
memoryrecord_aob_setSize(mymemoryrecord, 25)
|
