How to make Weapon Casings bounce? And also how to have them spawn at a certain place on the screen.

when they spawn they seem to just spawn at doomguy's feet and drop to the floor.

Perhaps spawnheight value isn't set to a high enough value in your projectile firing action? use A_FireProjectile or A_FireCustomMissile instead of A_SpawnItem if you're not already using it.

They dont bounce or make noise.

Have you already tried adding PROJECTILE, -MISSILE, bounce flags and properties to your casing actor? SeeSound and DeathSound are the sfx for bouncing

I was also wondering if there was a way to make the casing spawn in a certain part of the screen

For that you'd have to change spawnoffset and spawnheight values in projectile firing action

Thank you so much I've changed A_SpawnItem to A_FireCustomMissile and I've added PROJECTILE and -MISSLE and all of the bouncing stuff my only problem now is changing the spawnoffset and spawnheight. I'm not sure what i'm meant to edit to change the offset and the height. Now when I fire my pistol the casing does bounce and it does go forward and it looks like its at the right height but its just the offset as the casings comes out at the front of the gun instead of the right side of it.

GLOF A 0 bright A_FireCustomMissile("DeadBulletCasing",0,0,0,-1)

This is the code for it.

Try this changing the angle parameter, it should look like this 

A_FireCustomMissile("DeadBulletCasing",45+random(-8,8),.......
