For colonist and other value a 0 the array is not set and you can't modify it until is 0. (trade for 1 element for have it at 1 and modify it)

Also if some value go to 0 the array is moved and you can miss the correct order. a group search with few value allow to find more candidate and refind the array.

The array change position in the same turn (sometime) and after the turn

Troop stats are also stored in an array.



Goes AP, Readiness, EXP. You have to look for each unit in a card/stack individually so it's more effective to just do your militia troops at the start of the game for early scouting or getting rid of the town that spawn 4 hexes from you because you know. Thanks RNG.

made change for refine the search and find the true one

group search 4: 100 4:19 4: * 4: * [COLOR=rgb(84, 172, 210)](ok, when a value changes, you can in the list of previously found values refine the search, looking for those changed in the list, It is possible that the 4 refers to "4 bytes" types of value I can imagine are the values of food, water, oil etc ... but I'm not sure.)

[COLOR=rgb(84, 172, 210)]This is clearer, I suppose, but the use of group search still eludes me, and why there is a decimal value alongside a value that I imagine is experienced in Bytes.



I am aware that Cheat Engine is a powerful tool, which I think I don't know at all, so I would be grateful if you

could help me understand how to use it better than I have done so far.

Thank you.



I enclose a screen from my first round of a game so that (if you have time) you can give me some

examples that can help me understand.



I apologize for the poor knowledge of the English language, but even in this field I am still a "student".



Thank you.[/COLOR]

Hi, What do I do with D0r14N info? Where do I put it? I only know the basics of Cheat Engine, so, not much

Thanks for your "clear and honest" answer.

It comforts me to know that I have other people "eager to learn" around me.

But I hope that among those who attend the forum there are those who can

provide me and anyone else who wants to learn the notions necessary

to better use this extraordinary tool.

Thank you

[/QUOTE]



IC stands for Industrial Capacity (it's a common acronym in wargames like this, in case you ever play another one). It's the white gear in your resources. Here's the steps you should do to find it:

[LIST=1]

[*]Load the cheat table into cheat engine, the way I described before

[*]Search for the number of IC you have using 4 bytes

[*]Build anything, like a dirt road, so that your IC changes

[*]Search again for the new number

[*]Repeat 1-3 until you have one address left. Sometimes you'll have 0 addresses left, because the game likes to reset address locations once in a while for some reason. In that case, just start the search over.

[*]Take the address you see and replace every "[IC]" in the table with that address. Double click in the address field to bring up the edit window for that row.

[/LIST]

Unfortunately I'm also pretty new, so I'm not sure how 4nD0r14N's thing works.

Any luck finding regime profile stats or leader stats?

1. New scan

2. Value Type: Grouped (this is the entry where you normally put 4 bytes)



3. Generate groupscan command:

4 bytes: 100

4 bytes: [number of your PP]

4 bytes: *

4 bytes: *



OR



3. Add value to be searched: -> 4:100 4:[Number of PP] 4:* 4:*



4. Dubbelclick on result. -> Adds 4 results to list.

5. Guess which one is your PP. ;)

find one resource(IP,metal,ammo), change it(f.e. produce 1 ammo) then rightclick on it in table -> recalculate adresses
for army and units do same thing, each unit in army different so if army contain 400x INF 100xMG you need find and edit 2 adresses(if you need 999 moves or something), it can be finded by moving units or you can find group -> 4:quantity of units 4:action points 4:readiness 4:xp 4:* 4:* 4:morale
game change values each decision or in some random times, so find values may be tricky, and if value is - 0, there no string in game table and cheat engine table go to crap, so you can't find some resources on turn 1(you need it do manually with search or memory browser) and table not work correct if you cant have all resources not only in you turn but also it cant drop to zero and be added in start you turn
ps:all blame to recurrent tables

i guess no, money and fate points in different place of table(but you can change you player id if find Political Points, but it useless), and leader skills may be scattered in different places in game, t cant find then with group scan and with browsing memory for commander names

ps: about FP and money from unpacked save, so they are 4b
REGIMEKEY.credits=REGIMEKEY.credits+1000
REGKEY.fp=REGKEY.fp+6

This game is very addicting. But researching takes much time. is there anyway to research fast? and which factors affect population and worker happiness?
