I noticed a few times now that some mortar rounds tend to explode in the air as if they hit the ground... it looks trippy and really awkward.

Here are two screenshots I took of that happening; they are not the best, but they should illustrate what I'm talking about:

p.s. sry for ironsights, artillery caught me off guard to get a good screenshot

edit:

here is a better screenshot:

Thats the map I saw this on to, and specifically it was happening over the dry river bed with the big dips.

I noticed it happens mostly on Spartanovka, but I've also see it happen on some other maps.

Another thing, this explosion glitch happens mainly with mortars and not with artillery or rockets; at least I haven't seen it happen with other ordinance.

Seems to happen when the buildings are targeted. Like the rounds are hitting an invisible wall above the buildings.

I thought it was colliding with a power line when I noticed it. I guess they are just exploding in the air.

I have seen this in every map now, noticed it the most in Fallen Fighters... Like the artillery or mortars hits a invisible item.
