...and I finally found the solution to cheating with the skill points.
I can not be bothered writing an extensive post as OP (although it was very intuitive and nice).
First follow the same first steps as above (run cheat engine, run sw3, alt+tab, find sw3 in the drop down menu)..
Then comes the neat part. Instead of searching for 4byte values, do a float search. In addition the easiest way is to search for "value between".
For example, if you have 45.6 skill points, search for a value between 45 and 46. Several will probably be found. The go back to sw3, use some of the skill points, press ok. Remember the current value of skill points. For example 35.6. Do a "Next search" for value between 35 and 36. Voila.
The drawback to using this way is of course that you have to actually spend some skill points to find the exact value you want to change. If you do not have enough skill points to spend - then this way of cheating is useless. My guess is there are more clever ways of finding the skill points using cheat engine, however my knowledge of the software is pretty rudimentary.
Have fun.
btw - you can use the same system as OP presented changing for example the number of rockets. It often takes a lot of selling and buying and searching for new values (since the numbers tends to be smaller and hence found more often when doing a memory search)- but it works.
