When you say read do you mean load, like load word? When you say write do you mean store, like store word?
No, those are breakpoint commands.
Read breakpoint breaks the game when a command reads from the address specified.
Write breakpoint breaks the game when a command writes to the address specified.
Read/Write breakpoint is for the 2 things above.
Execute breakpoint breaks the game when the command at the address specified is executed.
thanks I think I understand it better
Generally:
Read > Write
Since the game reads more often than write.
Sometimes, mutiple write adresses can be grabbed with one read.
But read may freeze more often when testing the adress...
Execute is useful to check, if an adress is executing like you want to inject your hook there.
Note that your ASM will only be used every time the adress executes.
