• sg kill
• ssg kill
• ng kill
• sng kill
• nade kill
• gib nade kill (when you make the player splode)
• rocket kill
• gib rocket kill
• lightning kill
• lightning discharge
• grunt
• fiend
• rottweiler
• enforcer
• rotfish
• death knight
• knight
• ogre
• shubby (I'm not sure if this even happens)
• chthon <--- originally not in the original progs.dat but I'm adding it
• shambler
• vore
• spawn
• scrag
• zombie
• squished
• spiked (trap)
• lavaball
• "tried to leave"
• drowning in water
• lava overkill (burst into flames)
• lava kill
• OTHER (died) (coder's note: // hell if I know; he's just dead!!!)

I do credit the people who come up with the messages I use

* OTHER (died) (coder's note: // hell if I know; he's just dead!!!): [player] was killed by an unknown force

squish - "was made compact" / "lost his 3rd dimension"
rotfish - "sleeps inside the fishes"
died - "ceased to be"
rocketsuicide - "rocked too hard"

[Canadian*Sniper]

holy fuck ORL! 0_o

[gregory]

axe kill - Player was split like a log.
gib nade kill (when you make the player splode) Player found out what his own anus looks like.

[Canadian*Sniper]

I like these suggestions

I updated the code using Zoid's pentagram telefrag fix. There are 3 scenarios.

normal telefrag
reverse telefrag when telefragging a pent user
normal telefrag when both are using pent

I already have death messages for the first two but the 3rd option needs death messages

[gregory]

gib nade kill (when you make the player splode) Player was turned into a pile of meat and bones.
