how would you make it so if someone gets killed by a projectile, the person who shot it gets 1 kill and a message to the world saying they killed whoever they killed?

Well, this depends on if your projectiles are dense. If they are...

obj/Weapon/Generic_Gun
  Bump(mob/M)
    if(istype(M, /mob))
      ..()
      return
    M.health -= M.dam  // Assuming you have damage amounts on your guns
    if(M.health < 1)
      world << "[M.name] has been killed!"
      del(src)   // Delete the projectile, since it hit someone

Hope that helps.

Then we'll need to remember who shot the projectile.

obj/Weapon/var/mob/owner  // Set this to the person who shot the projectile in your firing proc

obj/Weapon/Generic_Gun
  Bump(mob/M)
    if(istype(M, /mob))
      ..()
      return
    M.health -= M.dam  // Assuming you have damage amounts on your guns
    if(M.health < 1)
      world << "[M.name] has been killed by [src.owner.name]!"
      src.owner.kills++
      del(src)   // Delete the projectile, since it hit someone

In your firing proc...

O.owner = src  // Assuming src is the firer, and O is the projectile :P
