ForceKillScripts Just Doesn't Work

Like the title implies, it just refuses to work. I've boiled everything down into such minimal content that it can't possibly be anything else. In the ZMAPINFO lump, the only two entries in gameinfo are ForceKillScripts being set to "True" and a titlemusic change. The title screen music is different, so it's evidently set up correctly. My Compiled ACS (Zdoom) lump has also evidently been set up and pointed to correctly, as the ENTER script that simply prints text when the level starts does execute. However, the KILL script that does the exact same thing with different text doesn't execute when enemies are killed, even though ForceKillScripts has been set to "True" in a ZMAPINFO lump that the game IS reading. What is happening here?

I just tested it, and seems to work. Could you post your mod?

Sorry if I'm just making some really stupid mistake here

The script is run successfully. The problem is that you're using [wiki]Print[/wiki] instead of [wiki]PrintBold[/wiki] to do your testing.

While this isn't related to this issue, you need the #library [wiki]directive[/wiki] at the top of the ACS file, before even #include.

Code: Select all

#library "HASCRIPT"

You're right, changed it to printbold and it did work. Tried it with different commands and they went off, maybe I was just using those wrong. Thank you for your time
