No need to include me in the credits, you didn't use my edit.

You can, but only after a couple of minor changes are made by the author: the editor number and weapon slot assignment should be removed. It's up to the modder to set those.

@robot j , I have a favor to ask you. Could you remove the editor number/slot assignment, please? You don't have to if you think it's good. Thank you :)

I agree with the editor number, but the weapon slot number should stay, it's very convenient for testing, instead of using the "use" command, which doesn't work sometimes. It's easy to change too.
Another problem is that the sound calling functions should be replaced with A_StartSound, because their functionality is much better. It should look like this:
Code:
States { ready: BFPS A 1 A_weaponready TNT1 A 0 A_StartSound("BRPS/idle",7,CHANF_LOOPING) BFPI A 1 A_weaponready BFPI B 1 A_weaponready BFPI C 1 A_weaponready BFPI D 1 A_weaponready BFPI E 1 A_weaponready BFPI F 1 A_weaponready BFPI G 1 A_weaponready BFPI H 1 A_weaponready BFPI I 1 A_weaponready BFPI J 1 A_weaponready loop select: BFPS A 1 A_raise BFPS A 0 A_raise loop deselect: TNT1 A 0 A_StopSound(7) BFPS A 1 A_lower BFPS A 0 A_lower loop fire: TNT1 A 0 A_StartSound("BRPS/fire",7) BFPS B 10 BFPS C 10 BFPS D 10 BFPS E 3 A_firecustommissile("REDB") TNT1 A 0 A_recoil(5) BFPS F 3 BFPS C 7 BFPS B 5 BFPS B 3 A_refire goto ready Spawn: BRPO A -1 stop }

The slot 7 is where all the weapon sounds play, so when it fires, it stops the huming noise and plays the firing sound instead, and if you die while using the weapon, it stops instead of keep playing the sound.

And this is a personal opinion, but the projectile should have a more interesting look, instead of just being a red ball that explodes. I was messing with the actor and added trails and other effects:

Fancy to look interesting, but also simple, so it fits with the classic arsenal. If you are interested, here's the code I used:

And the sprites I used:

Something I just noticed while testing the latest version: the weapon gives you less ammo on pickup than it needs to fire it. I suggest that you increase the AmmoGive to 30 at least, so that you can still fire the gun even if it's just for one shot.

And while you're at, remove the NOAUTOAIM flag. It serves no purpose here, apart from making the weapon unusable for players who don't use freelook and manual aiming.

This is just a tip: A_Lower and A_Raise allow you to set the speed of lowering and raising, so instead of doing this:
Code:
Select: BLAH A 1 A_Raise BLAH A 0 A_Raise Loop
You can do this:
Code:
Select: BLAH A 1 A_Raise(12) Loop
