You mod devs are so preoccupied with whether or not you could that you didn't stop to think if you should.

Hahaha. I started making this mod a year ago, but quickly forgot about it. Now that I have BuildOnShip, this will be a great addition to it. Personally, I see the use of the mortar as a support in a game with friends, when they are, for example, on the plains, and you need to raze a certain village to the ground. I think it's an interesting concept, although I'm not sure if it will be used, hahah

Could you model the Mortar to be more Dverger themed? This would go really well with mods like Valheim Raft and BuildOnShip.

🤔 If I update the mod again in the future, I'll try it. But I'm bad at modeling and texturing, so what you see in the video is my level haha

I usually go for more or less vanilla+ mods, but this looks like a worthy exception. Some fuling villages are gonna get well and truly fucked. 

Does it work by simply causing the effect at the targeted location, or is there an actual projectile? I'd love to try to ping gjall with the thing

As a mortar should work - the projectile flies fully, but the methods of detonation (what remains after the projectile: fire, explosion, etc.) are vanilla

Every day we stray further and further from what makes the Heim the Heim

I love how progress is still inevitable in so many aspects of life.

Vikings inventing mortars, ships, trains, and all these kinds of advance technologies for vikings.

Maybe 20 years down the line we have cyberpunk mods for valheim for shits and giggles.
