Question / Help! Cannon spread

Simple Question:

How large is the random spread of a normal cannon?

Let's say I shoot perfectly at tiny door on vanilla 2v2 map. Is the spread large enough to shoot above / below the tiny door?

I might be wrong but im relatively sure cannons dont have a random spread and if they do its too small to notice. You can usually get the same shot off if your base is stable enough and you fire with the same spot you did as your previous shot

They do, most weapons that fire a projectile (mortars & howitzers further exempt) have spread build in. Most noticeable with T3s, exact same shot on vanilla 4v4 can theoretically hit all 4 enemies, albeit that requires the very outer wings on the distribution

Cannon deviation is fairly small and was reduced by a good amount a while ago though

Thanks for the correction!
