Not true. It should be trivial for etpro to disable keyboard movement of the mortar only (and maybe when you are using a scoped weapon too :o). Unfortunately this also stops the legitimate use of the keyboard to manually fine tune your aim. However, it is a far less intrusive solution than banning the mortar completely, or changing its fire rate.

Even without a change to etpro, you can force pitch and yaw speed to be something low enough that it stops being useful for mortar scripts. Again, this affects legitimate uses of keyboard movement, but, if mortar scripts are truely a problem, might be acceptable.

I'm against any hacked up solution to stop these scripts, mainly by blocking keyboard aim, as that's how I've used the mortar ever since I started playing ET. :]
