Detect who killed unit

[rgordon]

I need to detect who killed a specific unit and assign the unit name to a variable.

If this has been covered in another thread, can you please give me a link.

Thanks in advance for any help.

This might works

Code: [Select]

PersonWhoWasKilled unit1 addEventHandler["killed",{PersonWhoDidTheKilling=_killer}]


personwhowaskilled is the unit that will be killed
personwhodidthekilling would be the person who killed unit1.

I'm sorry, but that would mean you'd have to script that line before you'd even know who would kill who, wouldn't you ?

no, you just put it in init of the unit that he wants to be killed.
