This is a case of reading the code. In interpreter.c find the command
that is called for 'hit' or 'kill'. It will look like so:

  { "kill"     , POS_FIGHTING, do_kill     , 0, 0 },

This obviously called ACMD(do_kill) which is in act.offensive.c. Load up
that file and walk through your code. Don't read it silently. Read it
aloud and annoy those around you. It will help you realize what your code
is doing and you will be able to figure out what the code is doing.
