I saw it on one of the KMP (killtrocity map pack), it was midship map and there were a mess load of needlers and the had different colored projectiles.
How would I go about doing this?
thanks for the help ~swordfang :)

You will probably also want to edit the Contrail color, found in the [cont] tag...If you open a [cont] tag in Entity, and goto the meta editor, it should show Color values in RGB form.

you need to edit the mgs2 of the projectile, get the updated MGS2 plugin from
