Ok this is a projectile that gets shot out, my problem is that when you shoot it fast somtimes the bullets run into each other causing them to get stuck and give a proc error because it doesnt knwo what to do when bumping another bullet. Does anyone know how to make the bullets sort of by pass each other because there getting stuck or make it so that when they bump each other it doesnt do anthing or stop.

Make it check for the type of thing it bumps into. Check to see if its a player, or another bullet. Not sure about the pass through part though.

    Bump(mob/M)
        if(istype(M,/obj/bullet))return
        if(M.client)//if it is a mob


Try that i think it will work

Thanks, that worked for the proc error msg's but i still face the problem of the bullets clogging up together. I tried to change the density to 0 of the bullet but then the bump didnt work. Any ideas?

Ugh. No. You've managed to check one type of objects without checking all the others. M.client will still fail if this bumps into a wall. And you put no space between your code and the // comments. No soup for you!
    Bump(mob/M)
        if(ismob(M) && M.client)

Your deathcheck() proc is tragically wrong. Actually doubly so, since you seem to have two of them for no reason:
deathcheck(M)
allydmgcheck(M)

Since this is occurring within Bump() for a projectile, the call should look like this:
M.deathcheck(owner)


  • You must have only one deathcheck proc.
  • The deathcheck proc's src must be the victim.
  • The killer must be passed as an argument to that proc, unless knowing the killer does not matter.

Bump(mob/M)
    //here is the effects
    if(istype(M,/obj/spells/bullet))
        M.density=0
        sleep(10)
        M.density=1

I kinda did this, it sorta helps....i guess??

I don't see how that could possibly help. That'll end up with bullets skipping through walls.
