tbd_mortars

This addon is meant to rework the way mortars work, and to try to bring them a bit closer to reality.

New models have been created for ammo boxes and shells, in order to try and mimic their real life counterparts.
The addon forces the operators to manually pick up individual mortar shells out of their respective boxes, and to manually load them into the mortar itself by interacting with the barrel of the mortar. In order to load the shell, the shell has to be within the player´s inventory, or in close proximity to the barrel of the mortar.

The shells themselves are physically present in their ammo box, instead of only being inside of the box´s "inventory space". Various types of shells (HE-frag, smoke and flare) can be freely combined inside the ammo boxes for transportation

ACE ammunition handling is not to be used.

Spawn 81/82mm boxes containing the ammunition.
Use ACE interaction menu to take off/put on the caps.
Use ACE interaction menu to take the shells out of/put in the box. Shells are added into the players inventory if there's enough space, or they are placed on the ground.
Use ACE interaction menu to load/unload the shells into/from the mortar.
Be immersed.

Use CBA addon settings to change the loading/unloading time
