So I need a hero kill assist system and i have some things in mind of how i would go about doing it but just wondering if there is any already out there already made as a good example or if anyone wanted to give tips on the best method.

I'd like it to be in GUI but i dont mind custom scripts mixed in of any kind, but unlike many ppl i like looking at the gui format more than plain text in most cases :) and i would rather click a lot than type a lot.

Several things to do:
- Store if someone buffs-debuffs, an ally who kills or an enemy.
- Store if someone attacks-kills the diying unit.
- Clear the stored information after a while.
That is the professional way to do the trigger.
The unprofessional and very unaccurate way will be to just pick every allied unit of the killing unit in range and just give them the assistance and create the message xd.

yea not bad ways, i was thinking maybe only give assist to the units that didnt get the kill but did the biggest (or a large portion) of the damage, not really worried about doing the buffs thing like LoL does, the assist doesnt need to venture down that road. Its mostly to at least give some credit to someone about to get a hk but someone else ks'ing the last hit.
