I've been working on a bolt item for players to chuck and I've gotten a bit stuck. Being Knaz I am quite a horrid scripter* due to I am still learning.
Could someone please lend a hand? The script is here:

For some reason I think I've overwritten something and it isn't going to let it work. If you feel you totally MUST have the file: make a reply and I'll send it to you.**
*Its true.
**I will hesitate for some people. Don't expect it right away.
