Here, it is being used to update a scoreboard:

function updateScoreOnWasted ( ammo, killer, weapon )
  if ( killer ~= false) then                            -- Check to see if anything killed the player
    local killerTeam = getTeamName ( getPlayerTeam(killer) )
    if ( killerTeam == "grove" ) then             -- if a Grove player scored the kill
      groveteamscore = groveteamscore + 1   -- Grove gets 1 point
      textItemSetText ( scoregrove, tostring(groveteamscore) ) -- Update scoreboard.
    elseif ( killerTeam == "balla" ) then         -- if a Balla player scored the kill
      ballateamscore = ballateamscore + 1   -- Ballas get 1 point
      textItemSetText ( scoreballa, tostring(ballateamscore) ) -- Update scoreboard.
