The problem now is that you are checking if conditions are true having already determined if a previous condition was true, and so both actions are happening within the same fire.

While there are better ways to go about this, this script could be compressed down to:

PHP Code:

if (weaponfired){
  if(client.bomb == 1){
    setani shoot,remote.png;
    setimg remotebomb1.png;
    client.explosion = 1;
    client.bomb = 0;
  }
  else{
    if(playerdir == 0){
      this.placex = playerx + 0.5; 
      this.placey = playery - 1;
    }
    else if(playerdir == 1){
      this.placex = playerx - 1.5; 
      this.placey = playery + 1;
    }
    else if(playerdir == 2){
      this.placex = playerx + 0.5; 
      this.placey = playery + 2.5;
    }
    else if(playerdir == 3){
      this.placex = playerx + 2.5; 
      this.placey = playery + 1;
    }
    putnpc remotebomb1.png,remotebomb.txt,this.placex,this.placey;
    client.bomb = 1;
  }
} 


PHP Code:

if (created) {
setimg remotebomb1.png;
}
if (client.explosion==1) {
canbecarried;
setimg remotebomb2.png;
sleep 0.5;
putexplosion 2,x,y;
client.explosion=0;
destroy;
} 


This won't work because the if condition is not occurring within an action.
You could try:

PHP Code:

//weapon
if (weaponfired){
  if(client.bomb == 1){
    setani shoot,remote.png;
    setimg remotebomb1.png;
    triggeraction this.placex,this.placey,explode,;
    client.bomb = 0;
  }
}

//npc

if(actionexplode){
  canbecarried;
  setimg remotebomb2.png;
  sleep 0.5;
  putexplosion 2,x,y;
  client.explosion=0;
  destroy;
} 


or

PHP Code:

if(created){
  setimg remotebomb1.png;
  timeout = 0.05;
}

if(timeout){
  if(client.explosion){
    canbecarried;
    setimg remotebomb2.png;
    sleep 0.5;
    putexplosion 2,x,y;
    client.explosion=0;
    destroy;
  }
  else{
    timeout = 0.05;
  }
}
