I saw potential in this fella, so I did my best to improve and clean up some code to make it at least acceptable, like demon head particles upon healing nearby monsters.

This is a really cool monster! It's looking pretty good but it has some problems: One, its move speed seems a little slow and unguided (perhaps just a quirk of vanilla doom?) and second, its melee attack is way too fast, barely having a refractory period, which looks very jarring given its relatively low move speed.

I've never played the game this enemy game from (to the best of my knowledge) so if this meant to mimic that behavior I guess it isn't bad. But I personally preferred this enemy when I set the tics in its melee animation to 4 and its base speed to 12. With a FastSpeed of 14.

In addition to the previous post, that green aura thing it spawns when firing its projectiles doesn't disappear.

Now that forums have been fixed (and upgraded), I can do the required fixes of this now.

Also changing to Dropbox since I am now hitting storage limit on my Drive, and I want to clear out some space.
