Rookie data is stored in the following format, with each word/? being 4 bytes:

the number 20 in decimal is stored as: 14 00 00 00 in my display on cheat engine. XCOM uses 4 byte hex to store data, and Cheat Engine displays it in big endian byte order, little endian bit order (I have no idea why, I can't imagine it's actually stored like this in XCOM) - e.g. Note that the options start at 0 in memory, so they'll be 1 less than the displayed number.

Double click value, change to say, 10 - and you now back in time to the 10th of the month, which is enough time to build some satellites and an uplink.(Assuming basic knowledge of Cheat Engine, use the first couple lessons of its tutorial to learn the basics - that's all I did, so if you know easier ways to accomplish this, please let me know!

Eureka - I used cheat engine to TURN BACK TIME, allowing me to build more satellite uplinks and satellites before the next council meeting. My idea was to use 'Exact value' scanning to change in game panic levels and then save my game, but it was way too difficult for a total noob like myself to determine which memory addresses contained the panic levels because the panic levels themselves do not change in real time when on the situation room screen.Д¤.
