Description

Wiki Description

This is a convenient way to kill an actor in an alias without calling ReferenceAlias.GetActorReference() on it. It's mostly useful in cases where you have lots of aliases that may or may not be filled and you want to call Actor.Kill(...) on them without having to test for an actor being present first.
