You can terminate normal numbered script by running "special acs_terminate <scriptnumber> 0"; however this doesn't work for named scripts. Or you'd need a way to know the script's secret number (I believe it's a negative hash of its name) perhaps.

Re: Is there a way to terminate a named script from the cons
I don't believe there's a built-in solution for this, but it can pretty easily be simulated with an event handler and a console alias:
Code: Select all
class ACS_NamedTerminateHandler : EventHandler
{
const EventPrefix = "ACS_NamedTerminate::";
override void NetworkProcess(ConsoleEvent e)
{
if (e.Name.Left(EventPrefix.Length()) == EventPrefix)
{
let script = e.Name.Mid(EventPrefix.Length());
GetDefaultByType('Actor').ACS_NamedTerminate(script, e.Args[0]);
}
}
}Code: Select all
alias acs_namedTerminate "netEvent %\"ACS_NamedTerminate::%1\" %2"
