Summary0004126: ACS function to open specific OptionMenus
DescriptionThis one's as simple as the title. Mega Man 8-Bit Deathmatch uses ConsoleCommand to reopen certain menus via ACS after they have been closed. The particular case is having MENUDEF call an alias defined in KEYCONF, the alias closes the menu, pukes a NET script, and then the NET script reopens the menu via ConsoleCommand once it has finished.

This pipeline facilitates configuration style menus where the player can make some change that needs to happen through ACS, hence closing the menu, but then don't have to navigate manually to that same menu, heavily speeding up the process.

Additionally, some mods have used ConsoleCommand's ability to open specific menus for secret / conditional menus, such as pressing a button in MENUDEF which will open a different menu depending on the map.

These functions seem to check out from my testing. We had talked previously that it might be useful to have some MENUDEF keyword which marks a menu as only openable via the OpenMenu function, but that might be best saved for later.
