If you're screencapping SLADE, it's a good idea to include the line numbers so that we can quickly see what "line 136" in the error message is. That can (but not always) tell you where the error is.

 

You're using the wrong syntax in the pain.VelFromAngle line. You don't have to declare the values you're passing as variables. That line should be:

pain.VelFromAngle(31, 13e7); 

Also you're going to want to null check pain, like

if (pain)
	{
	pain.angle = angle;
	pain.VelFromAngle(31, 13e7); 
	}

Because if SpawnMissile does not create the pain elemental -- let's say the spawn destination is blocked -- you'll be trying to do operations on data that doesn't exist and there will be a crash. So "if (pain)" makes sure that pain exists and is pointing at something.

 

I'm not sure if this is how you want to create a new attack ('extend class', etc.), but the next helpful poster can get into that...
