    Editing variables while running a flash program.

    I'm sure this is possible, but I bet it is incredibly complicated.

    So there's a browser based flash application, and in this application I need to find and edit a variable. *edit* Oh yeah, I must be able to change the variable while the program is running */edit*

    Any ideas on how to do this?

    you'd have to use a debugger...however I don't know if you'd have an easy time of finding the correct memory location. I don't know if the flash animation would be in the same memory space as the browser or a seperate space under a process for the flash plugin...probably depends on what browser at that point also...what is this for anyway? Trying to get the high score on some flash game?

    There are apps out there already. I don't know any off the top of my head. I see them used all the time though, so they can't be too difficult to find.
