Description

The ai will not fire 3 rounds.

The mortar gunner doesn't fire 3 rounds with the commands, he fires only 1 round:

mortargunner doArtilleryFire [getMarkerPos "marker1","8Rnd_82mm_Mo_shells",3];
mortargunner commandArtilleryFire [getMarkerPos "marker1","8Rnd_82mm_Mo_shells",3];

The gunner of the m4 scorcher fires 3 rounds with the commands:

gunner155 doArtilleryFire [getMarkerPos "marker2","32Rnd_155mm_Mo_shells",3];
gunner155 commandArtilleryFire [getMarkerPos "marker2","32Rnd_155mm_Mo_shells",3];

That happens since version 1.66.

I did the tests with vanilla arma 3 (no mods) version 1.66 139494

I did the tests also with vanilla arma 3 (no mods) version 1.66 139586

Confirmed - All mortar units fire only one single round! ...while SPGs are still fine.

See also T121792 and T121843.

I noticed this as well. Mortars will only fire one round and report fire mission complete no matter how many shells you request.

I can confirm this issue. As a result, the artillery fire module does not work properly for mortars in Ares Mod - Achilles Expansion (see Github).
Note that the current category "Firing from Vehicles" is not appropriate and should be changed.
In addition, the title is also misleading as the command just does not work properly for multiple rounds.

I can confirm as well.
Same problem with RHS M252 (USAF) and 2b14 mortars (AFRF)
