Hi Steve

If you do not use the flip-through recognition manual, how do you send the mast height to the TDC?
You have to use the recognition manual.
Lock the target, click on send mast height to the TDC.

Actually, you don't.

If you click on the Range link in the WO dialog panel, there is a place to manually enter the mast height.

I'm not sure what this actually does to the TDC though. By itself that information is not useful to the TDC.

It's useful when using the RAOBF tool though, but you don't have to "send" it to the TDC I don't think.

Hi Steve
I think what you are referring to is manually entering the mast height when using the periscopes graduation lines.

Ah, yes, that must be it for the TDS - the Stadiometer.

So you can manually enter the mast height through the WO dialog and then use the Stadiometer to calculate range based on that mast height.

Hi, thanks for a very good mod! I have a problem that i cant find a ship recognition manual which has "send mast height to tdc". I can get the book which has two big "pages" but doesen't have option to send the mast height. I used to have a small grey book which propably had the button. I think that i closed it and now i cant find it. I deleted all draggables -files but problem remains.
