Custom monsters and the "kill" command

[Sheet Skean]

Say you have an "Actor Cacodemon2010 : Cacodemon Replaces Cacodemon" kind of custom decorate monster; could you make it possible to kill it with the command "kill cacodemon" rather than "kill cacodemon2010"? Since I can summon cacodemon2010 using "summon cacodemon" (no need to type in the custom name) it seemed logical to ask.

Thanks.

You mean a way to kill inherited actors?

Something like killfamily (actor) would be useful.

[Demolisher]

I think he means to kill replaced actors.

[ZDG]

It's pretty logical anyway.

The 'KillFamily' or another implementation? Just curious...

The original suggestion, of course. If you want the other stuff re-suggest it as its own thread. It may be done in the indefinite future...

'KillFamily'

Heh. That's quite possibly a more alarming name than [wiki]A_KillChildren[/wiki].

Look at the name of the template on that page.

... Wow, this almost makes me want to look for such gems in ZDoom's source.

That one is purely a wiki in-joke.
