How can I get the value of [hp] which is a label I can edit in my addresslist, into an address or var I created in AA? Tried a few methods of both. 1st was making a var to put the value into, and 2nd and 3rd examples were just trying to put the value straight into addresses.

"HP" exists in my addresslist as a label that gets turned on when I activate my script, but here's where I am running into the problems...

Code:
addy1:
dd "WWE2K19_x64.exe"+25C1210
addy2:
dd "WWE2K19_x64.exe"+1E95670
mov [addy1],[hp]
mov [addy2],[hp]


Code:
mov "WWE2K19_x64.exe"+25C1210,[hp]
mov "WWE2K19_x64.exe"+1E95670,[hp]


Code:
mov ["WWE2K19_x64.exe"+25C1210],[hp]
mov ["WWE2K19_x64.exe"+1E95670],[hp]


The first example here doesn't work, and the second two aren't accepted by AA when trying to assign to the table. How do I write the code to just take whatever the current value of "HP" is and mov it into an address to make it that address' new value? Sorry if my wording is poor.

I keep the hp in brackets because I am trying to get the value of its temporarily assigned address in the addresslist when I activate the script, not take its temporarily assigned address into the new target.

In general, you can't do memory-to-memory moves. You have to do it through a register.
Code:
push rax
mov eax,[hp]
mov ["WWE2K19_x64.exe"+25C1210],eax
mov ["WWE2K19_x64.exe"+1E95670],eax
pop rax

Thanks! I got it working but had to use rdx instead of rax. It was ignoring the value or it wasn't being passed through. Any idea why? Do you think it's ok to leave it using rdx or could that interfere with something somewhere?

Here's what I currently have it looking like:
Code:

push rdx
mov edx,[hp]
mov ["WWE2K19_x64.exe"+25C1210],edx
mov ["WWE2K19_x64.exe"+1E95670],edx
pop rdx

There's a different opcode the "mov" mnemonic could use particular to eax (0xA3), but that shouldn't make any difference. I'd guess something else was going on. Maybe another script was interfering or something.
