I have searched and read an old thread here - http://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=55073&highlight=nextplayer

The thing that I just don't understand is why does it leave the script in an infinite loop when all players are inactive. Why doesn't it just terminate the script? I am asking because this traps scripts inside infinite loops when it seems unnecessary and it somewhat hinders restarting with SMARTManager/CrashSMART.

Would be nice if devs could explain why the code is made that way ;) Btw it's 2012, will there be any chance this is possibly changed?

In that same thread RM shows how to avoid the infinite loop.

Ah missed that! Was never used to looking at .SCAR code blocks. Just thought it's something else ;）

SRL_Procs[srl_InNextPlayerLoop] := @ScriptTerminate;
//then this will make some sense
 if (SRL_Procs[srl_InNextPlayerLoop] <> nil) then
      SRL_Procs[srl_InNextPlayerLoop]();

Thanks mormonman!
