Played Killed Target Event?

[RightLegRed]

I've looked through the wiki and other sites, I can't seem to find an event that fires when the player kills its target.

Is there one? If not, what would be an alternative?

I cant remember if it includes you even if not in a party, but it definately wont work on other players in a raid, only party members

I'll try that, thanks. Also, I appear to have placed this in the wrong section, could someone please move it for me?

I'm sorry for the double post and the late reply - only just got to testing this. This doesn't appear to work. I'm new with events and don't fully understand how they're used in WoWLUA.

Here's my code -
Foo.lua

if event == "PARTY_KILL" then 
 hunted=hunted+1
end

slash_command.lua

SLASH_HUNT1 = "/hunt"
SlashCmdList["HUNT"] = function(msg, editBox)
	if hunted == nil then
	SendChatMessage("You haven't killed any monsters");
	else
	SendChatMessage(hunted, "SAY");
	end
end

Foo.xml

<Frame name="Foo_Frame">
  <Scripts>
     <OnLoad>
        Foo_OnLoad();
     </OnLoad>
     <OnEvent>
        Foo_OnEvent(self, event, ...); -- The ... parameter passes all arguments that would otherwise be implicitly sent prior to 3.0.
                                       -- As of 3.0, you will need to explicitly send these arguments (as done here).  
     </OnEvent>
  </Scripts>
</Frame>

Could someone tell me why it isn't working? Thanks (:

function Foo_OnEvent(self,event,...)
    local timestamp, type = ...
    if type == "PARTY_KILL" then
        hunted = ( hunted or 0 ) + 1 --in case hunted isnt declared yet

Don't forget to actually check that you're the one killing (source guid/name)
