The user doesn't want to have to input the mast height. If I set the mast height slide to the correct mast height then I can even get the correct range using the XO TDC's stadimeter.
Using my automated mast height entry I see it set's the SH4 style AOB/Speed/Distance dial's height slider to the value I'm setting mast height to. So what am I missing here?
I target a ship and lock onto it - the slider for height does not change. I select another target - slider for height does not change. It just stays stuck at 20m

In SH4 the mast height come from when you select the correct ship in the Ship ID manual. Once you determine which ship you are looking at you check the box on the Ship ID manual and that loads the mast height. Then you set the AOB and speed on the pull out "TDC".

I have never adjusted the dial manually for mast height, but using this method I hit 10 out of 10 times.
