Try using the top of the stack for the red line. It seems the stack is the highest point, which I believe is what they use in this example.

Otherwise, take the mast height and divide by the ticks/mils and then take the inverse tangent (arctan) and multiply by 100. Should be close enough. Arctan is also written as "tan-1" on some calculators.

Ex:

22.5/50=0.45

0.45 arctan=24.2277 ...
24.2277*100=2422.77 => round to about 2,400m for targeting purposes using the height you provided here with the masts and not the stack. The number I got using about 60 on the mils was closer to 2,000m which is still off from what they're saying here.

Please verify for me that this works in general (in the map, for example) since I'm just going off the cuff here based on other angle stuff I've been studying.

Also, I noticed the info is for SH3. This is for KSD2 which is SH4, correct? Is there a difference? What magnification are you using (not what you think you're using, but what's in the mod).

Hope this helps.
