Try "LookAroundChance=0.0" and see if that helps?

Currently it is 10.0

It is under:

[Mortar]

SystemType=GUNNER

Move the mortar fire control to the WeaponSystem entry.

Also you could set the mortar up as an unguided rocket. I did that while playing around with 16 inch battleship guns.

I should try that tomorrow  do you have an example data entry of the unguided rocket? 

[KJakker 901]

Direct Message the object to me and I will put one together for you to try out.

Better try as guded with very low accuracy. You will never hit nothing unguided with mortar angle.

Here is my hand grenade for troopers. Similar ;-)
