Game message Modding Question -

I have a question about modding the text messages in mohaa. I want to change the "You killed yourself" message to something else when someone kills themself with a rocket; ONLY when someone kills themself with a rocket. I would settle for adding a message when the person fires a rocket instead, but I do not know if there is a way to print a game message like that from a tiki file.
I don't think it is possible. When you kill yourself, the same message is displayed for any weapon. There are no handlers for separate weapons/way of dying, not that I know of, no.
The only thing that is different for each way of dying is the message displayed to all (in red).
But where is the "You killed yourself" message displayed from? Is it hard coded or is there an ascii file where it it located.
Also is it possible to send a game message to the user (ex. You killed yourself) from a tiki file? Like when the person fires or pulls out a weapon for example.
I still need help with this. Let me restate my question. I need to send a message to the local user when they use the rocket launcher.
My rocket launcher mod will blow them up if they fire it so I wan to warn them of this and once the blow themselves up I want to tell them how stupid they are for doing so after my warning.
