Hm? what do you want updated?

I don't even use overwolf, I only used it when I using mortars a lot a that point godamn 3 years ago. Sure it's useful but tbh it's too much of a hassle.

Devs ruled this as a form of hacking/cheating.

How is this hacking or cheating? You can take ruler and slam it against your screen and start hacking / cheating like a pro with mortars.

This would be cheating if this app somehow provided enemy location but it does not. It's just simple calculator and marking tool. You still need forward observer to correct fire.

It helps you aim better, be more effective. Like autoaim cheat. And you don't need a FO.

It's not. You can print out a table of 50m grids and the corresponding mortar angles including elevation and it'll be just as fast if you know how to use it.

Saying you don't need an FO for it is also wrong. If you want to know exactly where your rounds are hitting or where to hit, you need an FO. Any well trained mortar operator can hit targets pinpoint accurate up to deviation with only a mark, but enemies move and the mark doesn't. Overwolf won't tell you that either.


This tool basically makes it easy for those poor unfortunate souls who can't comprehend the intricacies of parabolic curves, Taylor expansions and gridpoint interpolation in their heads, and that's okay. Mortars aren't meant to be a maths-battle.
