Script error, ":actors/player.txt" line 154:
Unexpected token string constant "DeadEndScript_CalculateHorizontalSunHitscan"

Pretty sure I'm using it correctly.

[Nash]

Attached a simple example.

[Graf Zahl]

Pretty sure that kind of use has not been implemented.

[Nash]

I wouldn't know... the unnamed implementation from before worked flawlessly. :D Hope Randy implements this.

[InsanityBringer]

The changelog seems to imply that this should be possible, though.

[Nash]

Everything else works except ACS_NamedExecuteWithResult.

[Graf Zahl]

The changelog seems to imply that this should be possible, though.

Action functions and expressions are 2 entirely different things.

[randi]

And something I had not even considered...

ACS_NamedExecuteWithResult will now work in DECORATE expressions. Since this is a pretty long and unwieldy name, you can also use CallACS. It is the same thing as ACS_NamedExecuteWithResult, but without the long name.
