I've seen this code for a moonjump

Is there a method to find just a single pointer that always points to the (in this case) height velocity?
I may try to make an asm version of this but I think it would be easiest if there was just one pointer to deal with.

^that isn't the code he posted. The code has values writtent to every pointer, not just one. I don't think the code you posted will work.

It looks like he's just trying four different pointers. Perhaps the original pointer moves around?

This might be solved with a pointer-in-pointer. Try Dr. Pepper's pointer search app.

You could also walk the stack to figure out the pointer-in-pointer stuff without writing an ASM code.
