(i always get a reading of 99.9), If mast height is differant you can change it manually.

reading of 99.9 means there was a problem reading the mast height data. Try starting your game with admin rights (right click on the SH5 icon and select runas-->Administrator). You probably installed SH5 into the \program files\ folder and you're either running Vista or Windows 7.

Thanks TDW

Yes Vista and \program files.
I have tried run as admin but no luck.

It was a while since i did that, so i will try it again.

thanks for you help

if that doesn't do it ensure that you have at least .NET framework 3.5 installed on your computer as the mod uses .NET items.

what language version of the game do you use? Do all ships show up as 99.9 on the stadimeter (and you have to go in and manually insert the mast height)?

I have English language installed.
Yes all ships are 99.9

If I use observation periscope I get a Message "Obs- key "Large Steamer" (or any other ship) missing in mastheight".

I get no message from attack periscaope but it is also 99.9

If I enter the mastheight manually I will get the correct range. When I lock on to next target and id (send mastheight data etc) the last manually entered height remains.

if you disable all mods except for the UIs mod do you still get the problem? The message saying that x ship is missing from mastheight means that the mod failed to find the ship in the mastheights table it built at game start from the files. The good thing is it's reading the ship name correctly - the bad thing is the reference table for the mast heights was not built at game start.......
