In some map orpg as Gaias Retaliation, TKOK,.... I see when heroes hit creep, number of damage will appear and floating on screen at position of creep, or in gaias, when Boss cast a skill, on screen at position of boss will appear a text which is name of skill, and they disapper after that slowly. I don't know how to make that, Someone can help me.

Everyone can see them in below picture

Use this system: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/spells-569/gui-damage-engine-201016/

It's all about floating texts. There should be examples in that map.

For the skill names, use this:
  • Untitled Trigger 018
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads (Name of (Ability being cast)) above (Triggering unit) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00...
      • Floating Text - Set the velocity of (Last created floating text) to 64.00 towards 90.00 degrees
      • Floating Text - Change (Last created floating text): Disable permanence
      • Floating Text - Change the lifespan of (Last created floating text) to 2.00 seconds
      • Floating Text - Change the fading age of (Last created floating text) to 1.60 seconds
