The formatting and indentation could be a lot better, for indentation you should use spaces made by pressing the TAB key in SLADE instead of the normal spacebar key, and the indentation on an actor should be layered like shown below:


Besides that the formatting is a bit strange too, for example on the Stingshot actor, the NoExtremeDeath flag isn't grouped together with the other flags, and only has the first letter capitalized, while the other flags on the actor are in all uppercase, the actor the projectile inherits from should also be typed as FastProjectile, not Fastprojectile, though that last one is even more of a nitpick than the one about the death flag.

Besides the issues with the indentation and formatting, I can't see anything else wrong with this submission.

Yeah this is old code and I didn't really do much cleaning up, I'll get round to cleaning it sometime today

I think the altfire should shoot 5 projectiles instead of 9, it feels too OP.

Originally It only shot 3, I'll implement it shooting 5 soon

On second though, maybe 4 is ok, considering that this weapon eats ammunition like crazy.
Also the flash frames need to be bright.
