i had it many times xD, surely end words are bad placed try moving enableheroe line up of it

maybe?

You have too many "end" statements. It's good practice to write your code with a clear nesting, like you're doing, but I wonder why you thought it necessary to put your "end" (the extra one) in-line with your SetProperty command. If you meant to have an "if" statement there, you left it out.

oh yeah, I had an if statement but then decided that not how I wanted it to work.

EDIT: it munges fine, but ingame when I kill someone I dont get health.

You want to add health to the killer's unit object not to its class.

give the unit a +10 health/sec regen rate after the first kill.

how would I make it only give health once?

EDIT:
how could GetObjectHealth be used to add health

EDIT2:
was a code that attempted to give health regen or a certain amount for a certain period of time, to reward a kill. It did not work, and I cannot generate a debug log as my disc is at a friends house.

Why not use SetProperty(unit, "CurHealth", Curhealth+10)? Or something like that. It works for a single boost rather than a continue regen.

The game isn't crashing, so you don't need a debug log and you don't use a CD to get one too.

AddHealth is a health regen. If you want to directly change the health of an object, use CurHealth.

Follow what Fiodis said, but use GetObjectHealth(unit)+10

So you want:

Just curious, would anything happen if you received +10 health when you were at 100% health? Would it increase, or could you just not get anymore?

It will roll over above 100% (when you have greater health than your maxhealth value it is stored in a lighter-blue flashing bar over your health bar). If you're being conscientious about your code, you'll make sure to check for hitting your maxhealth and making sure it doesn't get larger than that.

I tried that but nothing happened, but when I replaced (MaxHealth-CurHealth) with a number it worked.

That's because you used two variables that had no definition. "MaxHealth" by itself doesn't mean anything; neither does "CurHealth."

can a local variable that is defined in one function be called in another function?

Only if that other function was created in the same scope/level as the local variable. As an example, this is ok: But this won't work as expected:
