Can you run it in debug mode so we can see what line?

Bump <<;
I think I am not using the spawn correctly...any ideas?

In response to Dead_Demon
Uhh...spawn makes something wait to happen without stopping the rest of the proc in the process... You are definately not using spawn correctly. If I weren't so tired I'd fix that up for you...

Should he use New?

Remove that spawn, it's pointless. And remove the "new" from "projectile=new /obj/Bullets/rocketLauncher"

You want that variable to contain the type path to create, not the object itself.
