Same as func_tank but produces instant explosions. Func_tankmortar is used to represent a mounted cannon which can be controlled by players as well as monsters, if allowed. For either to be able to use this, it must be hooked up to a single func_tankcontrols entity. If you want func_tankmortar to be controllable by player, you need to specify a name of func_tankmortar and use func_tankcontrols entity in addition of this entity. Automatic turret needs "Active" flag enabled. Entity requires origin brush tied to barrel, so it can rotate around it.

The range, in degrees, of the barrel horizontal rotation in each side- left and right. This value is doubled for the whole barrel range e.g. when it's set to 90, the barrel can rotate left by 90 degrees and right by 90 degrees, what gives the total of 180.
Yaw Tolerance : yawtolerance
Seems to not affecting entity.
Pitch Rate : pitchrate
Vertical barrel rotating speed, in degrees per seconds.
Pitch Range : pitchrange
Vertical range of the barrel rotation, up and down. This value is doubled for the whole barrel range e.g. when it's set to 10, the barrel can rotate up by 10 degrees and down by 10 degrees, what gives the total of 20.
Pitch Tolerance : pitchtolerance
Seems to not affecting entity.
Barrel Length : barrel
Determines where bullets comes from. Distance is counted from origin brush to barrel end.
Barrel Horizontal : barrely

Maximum target range : maxRange
Maximum view distance to shoot target, used for automatic turrets only. However values above 2048 doesn't work.
Explosion Magnitude : iMagnitude
The greater the magnitude, the more damage the explosion will cause. Note that explosion damage values above 200 are know to cause explosion damage to even go through walls.
