How to goto a pointer in a script?

[BadCase]

How do i goto a pointer or at least get the address(or value) it is pointing to in a lua script

i cant find much info on this in the help just a single line that outputs the same result as a regular gg.getResults

Use getResults for get value. Use value as address. It is called pointer.

Thank you for the response, how is it that i retrieve the Hex little-endian notation from a specified search result in a script, I see only a Hex search in the documentation

All android use little-endian.

In any case, you can use google for understand what is that. And find byte swap algorithm and so on.

Shouldn't there be a documented function to retrieve the hex value in a script that we see along with the floats dwords bytes xor etc when we goto a value in game guardian ?

I think maybe I did not explain my question very well

in a script after doing gg.searchNumber()

and gg.getResults()

i have the Address selected in  this screen shot in the results table

in a script is there a function to goto or simply retrieve  the address stored in the Hex little-endian notation field?

any way at all to get it? even if i need to dump data to a file and then parse it

If you need address, then you have field address. If you need show value as hex number - use lua power for this. It is common question, so you can google answer for it.

On screen 0xA86EDED0 = -1.469.129.008

You can check it in any hex converter.

Thank you I was missing the 0X at the beginning when I tried, sorry was up all night and my brain is going at half speed.

I need to have a no coding when sleep deprived rule for myself lol

thank you again it was an incredibly simple one line solution if anyone else needs to do it.

p = string.gsub(("%x"):format(-1469129008), "ffffffff", "")

If you need 32-bit hex value (8 hex digit) it must be:

p = ("%x"):format(-1469129008):sub(-8)

Because if you try use -1 with your code, you can get empty string.

Nice thank you again for the help

Little tweak to the solution above, so that returned string will look like address in GG:

function toHexString(n)
  return string.format('%08X', n):sub(-8)
end

print(toHexString(12398754))
