I don't even know what to search the forum for to do this

I want to run a script (Script_2) using another script (Script_1) and wait for that script (Script_2) to finish and close then do some other things using the first script (Script_1).
How can the first script know that the other one is done and closed?

Thanks

You could simply use runwait script2.ahk, script1.ahk shouldn't continue until script2.ahk is closed I think. Otherwise you could try to detect the process or ahk window (each script has a window, even it if has no gui, so run with outputvarPid and detecthiddenwindow on) but runwait is probably all you need.
