Humanity or coin gain message by player kill

[Airwaves Man]

Hey guys,

I'm totally out of ideas. When a player shoots another player then he gets humanity or coins at my server. But how can I display that for the player who gets the humanity or coins? A normal systemchat message or a title text is enough for me but I cannot get it to work. The problem is, that the gain message is displayed at the guy who got shoot not at the one who shot. Can someone help me out?

Dude, I know how to give the player coins after a kill. Thats not what I asked for. The problem is a message that is displayed at player a when player a shoots player b and get coins for it. I asked the same question in the topic you linked.

Just a quick one, not tested at all:

If you utilize the player_death from OMC's thread above:

		//Player kill rewards
		_killer = _realSource;
		_coins = _killer getVariable [Z_moneyVariable,0];
		_coins = _coins + 250;
		_killer setVariable[Z_moneyVariable,_coins,true];

and you use my ZSC, you can send a private message to a specific player by their UID:

https://github.com/oiad/ZSC/blob/master/dayz_server/compile/server_handleSafeGear.sqf#L122-L123

Add the example below after this line:

_killer setVariable[Z_moneyVariable,_coins,true];

example:

RemoteMessage = ["private",[getPlayerUID _killer,format ["You killed %1, he had %2 %3.",_name,[_coins] call BIS_fnc_numberText,CurrencyName]]];
publicVariable "RemoteMessage";

Pretty easy, is this just when player a takes damage from player b or when player a dies from player b?

[Airwaves Man]

Only when player a dies from a player b.

All you would need is a publicEventHandler on every client to monitor for a message

Or just run my remote_messages script from here: https://github.com/oiad/ZSC/blob/master/dayz_code/compile/remote_message.sqf

in your init.sqf here: https://github.com/oiad/ZSC/blob/master/init.sqf#L141

@salival  I tested it with my Remote Messages and everything is working. Huge thanks salival. That was something I was a long time working on and had never the idea to use my Remote Messages.
