When ever I made a gun instead of shooting it deletes turf under it and blocks as well

That thing didn't work. It isn't launching

Hmm, it should work as Spuzzum wrote it. you may not be able to see it because Spuzzum's snippet didn't give the bullet obj an icon. Hopefully you noticed that and gave it one.

Did you try the links at the bottom of the page?

It now launches it but I can't get it to do damage with my code

If you are using my snippet, it tells you to put your damage code in the projectile's Bump() proc.

I know but the src.HP-=12 isn't working

That is because src in the Bump() proc is the projectile, not the thing that has been hit.

So what your saying it is not working because src in the Bump() proc isn't the other player?

Exactly. You can learn more about Bump() here: http://www.deadron.com/byond/ByondBwicki.dmb?HowToBump

The problem is that you don't know how to use Bump(). src is the projectile, the first argument in Bump is the object being Bumped, or shot in this case. You would want something like:

obj/projectile
Bump(target)
if(ismob(target))
var/mob/mobtarget = target
mobtarget.HP -= 12
