HELP - Need trigger for floating combat text

[XxkosumaxX]

I'm new to the world editor and am working on a map and learning as i go, i am in need of a trigger that can show the damage dealt by any unit in my map displayed as floating combat text. Any help will be most appreciated; also when posting please break it down in a good solid explanation. tell what kinds of variables and what in your explanation is a variable. thank whomever for your time and effort.

Combat Text requires a damage detection system, as there is no event for "a unit takes damage" without one. Check out Damage Engine, it has a trigger that shows a text tag with the right amount of damage.

You could trigger a somewhat accurate DDS by comparing HP in a fast loop. But as Bribe says, a DDS is usually the way to go (and the best way, really).
