Hi!

A few things:

1.) I think it's clear why this happening: the entity PhyscannonMuzzle can not be created, therefore self.Muzzle becomes the references NULL entity.

2.) I'd check again after shared.lua:639, if the created entity actually exists, like you did on shared.lua:638 if !self.Muzzle then self.Muzzle = ents.Create("PhyscannonMuzzle") if !self.Muzzle then //some handling else self.Muzzle:SetPos( self.Owner:GetShootPos() ) ... I know it's not ideal but you could catch those errors that way. I would extend this including line shared.lua:645, since those also reference self.Muzzle.

I have never worked with this type of entity (PhyscannonMuzzle) before. Are you sure that this is the right entity? Does this error happen all the time?

Let me know if you need some help. :)
