So, I'm trying to program a pair of gauntlets that will be able to tell when I hit something without a weapon. Problem is, the only commands I can find for such things have to either do with hitting someone with a weapon or programming from the single perspective of one person who might get attacked by me. How do I say, "If I attack someone in general while wearing these gauntlets, this happens." ??

In theory, using OBSE, you could check if the player was attacking, whether he had a weapon equipped, whether the gloves were equipped and then check who is under the crosshair. Then apply any effects to the target under the crosshair.
