Deal damage in the name of player

I'm running into the same issue, did you find any solution?

I don't understand what you need. Please clarify me and I see if I can help

I mean, the issue I'm having is that in order to deal a specific amount of damage with a range weapon I did the following:

I set power to 15 to get a decent range and bullet speed for my gun.

I set damage to 0 in order to eliminate the bullet damage.

I created a procedure called "when bullet hit living entity" and set it to "deal [2.68] damage [event/target entity] type=generic" 

This procedure deals that exact amount of damage when hitting a entity, which allows me to avoid the whole balancing power and damage hussle.

I have another procedure that detects when entity dies, which goes as follows:

Under world variable "when entity dies" 

If is [source entity] type player or server player = true

Set [source entity] NBT "Money" to get [source entity] NBT "Money" + 100

This adds 100 "Money" to the player every time it kills a entity.

This works fine for normal attacks, but since the gun's damage is not originated from the player, instead it's generated by the damage procedure, the "player kills entity" procedure doesn't work since the source of the damage is not the player.

So a way to making a procedure that basically deals damage in the name of the player would be extremely useful in this case.
