Do I have to multiply this by the magnification as well?

When zoomed in using "More realistic Periscope" my math comes out as follows:

27.1 mast height touching / line 12 graticule x 100 = 225.83

This is not the distance to target though. But if I multiply by the magnification difference (No mag = 1.5 High Mag = 6 difference of 4.5) the range comes out correct.

New math then is 27.1 mast height / line 12 graticule x 100 x High Mag 4.5 = 1016

It looks as though the graticule lines do not change with the magnification, so this would certainly play with ranges.

Great !!

seems that old interface is there but hidden by the new one.

someone knows if the game engine supports 1943-1945 radars detectors or other stuff or is ripped off the game engine

As the original Graticule was this one is affixed to the scope so it is not affected by zoom.
Low power is used to get the range by just using the graticule marks. So yes if you are using 6x to get ranges you must multiply the difference for the zooms to get a correct number.
