<desc>Returns the player who has lastly caused energy loss to an object.</desc>
<remark>
Because of the complexity of Clonk, it may not always be possible to determine the actual killer of a Clonk in chain reactions. In order to determine energy losses, every object stores a controller (see <funclink>GetController</funclink> for details). The controller is used to determine the player responsible for energy loss on a Clonk:<br/>
<ul>
<li>For object hits: The controlling player of the thrown object. The controller will automatically be set upon collection.</li>
<li>For fire: The controller of the original fire causing player, i.e. the calling object of the original call to <funclink>Incinerate</funclink>(). The causing player is kept independently of owners and controllers of the burning object in incineration chains. If, for example, player A incinerates a Clonk of player B and player B uses his burning Clonk to incinerate a Clonk of player C, both incinerations are marked as caused by player A.</li>
</ul>
The energy loss causing player is automatically reset to NO_OWNER (no player), whenever the Clonk executes an action that does not have ObjectDisabled=1 set (e.g. "Walk").<br/> Energy loss caused by the controller of the Clonk itself only sets the field if it was NO_OWNER before. This prevents players from committing suicide in order to deny scores from other players. Consequently, if a Clonk is hit by a rock and falls out of the bottom of the map, the killer is the player who threw the rock.

<example>
<code>protected func Death()
{
var killer = GetKiller();
if (killer == <funclink>GetController</funclink>()) <funclink>Message</funclink>("%s killed himself, hah!", <funclink>GetName</funclink>());
else if (killer != NO_OWNER) <funclink>Message</funclink>("%s was killed by %s!", <funclink>GetName</funclink>(), <funclink>GetPlayerName</funclink>(killer));
else <funclink>DeathAnnounce</funclink>();
<funclink>return</funclink> true;
}</code>
