So I'm trying to search for the memory location of a character's X position. I reset the cheat search, walk the character to the right, then do a search for "Value increased", right? For some reason, it's returning "Value is unchanged" results instead. Am I doing something wrong, or is this there a problem here?

I tested in Mario 3 with FCEU 0.98.15 and 0.98.16 and that method worked to find 0x0090 as the most precise X position value. My guess is that it's really finding the values that increased and you are thinking it found ones that didn't change because it sets original equal to current after a search.

Oh god we really need that cheat function in our current fceu project (in a non-model way!). It's so crucial in using bots :p

Why is it doing that, then? It shouldn't automatically set original to current. It doesn't do that for any of the other searches, just Value Increased.
