For this command to work, you will need to:
- call command with ignoreChildWindow param set to true (in VBS docs its called fromMission)
- close any opened display (not sure about this part, but closing every display (but #0) seems to work):
- If mission is run from 2D editor, you can just close RscDisplayArcadeMap display (idd 26) (because this was done from 2D editor, so RscDisplayArcadeMap is still active in background -- benargee)
- If mission is run from single mission browser, you can just close RscDisplaySingleMission (idd 2)
- end mission
Command is a bit bugged:- Third (config) param doesn't seem to work
- If you run this command in mission loaded from pbo, said pbo won't be writable until you close the game (you can't update it)

// Close all displays that could be the background display ... this is essentialy forceEnd command // Closing #0 will cause game to fail _zero = findDisplay 0; { if (_x != _zero) then { _x closeDisplay 1; }; } foreach allDisplays;
