A: Vanilla mortar accuracy is only modified by shooting skill. This mod adds more features and options, shown in the list below
- Lead moving targets!
- Weather: Mortar accuracy is affected by weather and time of day (in vanilla, mortar shots rarely are affected by weather)
- Colonist Skill: Mortar accuracy is affected by colonist Intellectual and/or Shooting skill
- Cover Miss Chance Removed: In vanilla, mortar accuracy is reduced based on the target's cover (why would targeting someone behind a tree cause my mortar to be less-accurate?)
- Accuracy radius preview and blast radius
- Customize how much skill affects accuracy, including giving everyone 100% perfect accuracy
- Can be freely added/removed from saved games
- Compatible with all modded mortars, catapults, trebuchets, handheld mortars, etc
- Compatible with Multiplayer
- Incompatible with Combat Extended:. A patch is unlikely with CE being such a large overhaul. CE does have their own mortar accuracy mechanics using spotting binoculars
