 I made the poem flow a bit better.

 I found 2 solutions for the obituary problem.
The issue is that the explosion needs to be considered a projectile, and instead of SpawnItem, use SpawnProjectile, like this:

Death:
TNT1 A 0 A_Die
TNT1 A 0 A_NoBlocking
SPBO AAAAEEEEAAAEEEAAEEAE 1
TNT1 A 1 A_SpawnProjectile("SpiderExplosion",0,0)
Stop
}
}

ACTOR SpiderExplosion
{
scale 0.50
RenderStyle Add
Projectile
+NOCLIP
States
{
Spawn:
EXPL A 1 Bright
Death:
TNT1 A 0 A_PlaySound("SBExplode", 0, 0.5)
EXPL A 1 Bright A_Explode(random(5,10), 80 )
EXPL BCDEFGHIJKLMNO 1 Bright
Stop
}
}

I added A_Die because there was a problem with the spider coming back to life, and the projectile has the NOCLIP flag so it doesn't collide with anything solid while playing its animation.

The other solution would be to make the explosion part of the spider's death animation instead of a separate class:

Death:
TNT1 A 0 A_Die
SPBO AAAAEEEEAAAEEEAAEEAE 1
TNT1 A 0 { A_SetScale(0.5); A_SetRenderStyle(1.0,STYLE_Add); A_NoGravity; A_NoBlocking; }
EXPL A 1 Bright A_PlaySound("SBExplode", 0, 0.5)
EXPL A 1 Bright A_Explode(random(5,10), 80, XF_NOTMISSILE)
EXPL BCDEFGHIJKLMNO 1 Bright
Stop

This way it works just like the Suicide Bomber.
Note that I changed the translucency to additive instead of opaque, seems like the sprites were made with that style in mind.

Also, change the "their" to "%p" in the obituary, so it shows the pronoun accordingly to the player's gender.

 Thank you for the help, this has now been updated with the changes! I went ahead and used the second option to keep things more simple. Also thank you for the help on the poem, it flows better now. ![^_^](https://www.realm667.com/anime.gif "^_^")
