Yes, that's correct. It gives the gamer corrected mast heights (within the limits of the game engine) to have a more accurate manual range determination. It's as simple a mod as I can make (just changing mast heights) without having to be compatible with any other mod or whatever patch UBIsoft throws out.
Although this does not address the possibility of new ships being entered from the various modders or from the developers, that's why I explained the process and formula for figuring corrected mast heights. It puts the burden of giving the correct mast heights for manual range finding on the shoulders of those that are creating the ships. If they do not wish to do so, then your only alternative is to follow the process yourself, of testing and calibrating, to make range finding more accurate.
I believe my Ship Centered, Accuracy Fix is much more accurate than this basic approach, but I have no plans to dance to the UBIsoft beat with their paid for patches and "Upgrades". If the SCAF mod works with 1.5, then keep using it. If not try this "SH4 Mast Correction" version as an alternative. If they do not, then you should beat down UBIsoft's door, demanding better from them.
