Mortar fired me...

Description

I was firing multiple mortars at a target using the artillery computer when it suddenly fired itself and I to target location. Well, I guess it just relocated us to the target location because I did not die, but I could see us going across the map using the artillery computer.

Wait. What? Like, a human cannonball? I'm confused by exactly what you mean.

Well, yes I guess. I couldn't see what physically happened to me because I was using the artillery computer. I saw the mortar icon shoot across the map and when I exited the computer I was at the location I was firing at. I'm about to go try and reproduce what happened.

So you teleported to the target position of the mortar you were firing then?

Could it have been the mortar-flipping catapult effect?

Does happen. I was using multiple mortals (30) to bulldoze a town, suddenly few of my mortar teams flew 2.5km to the sea.

It is quite possible that it was the mortar-flipping catapult effect. All I know is that when I exited the artillery computer...toto and I were not in Kansas anymore. ;)
