Question on distance

Ok, last night, i tried to set a rp but it said i was too close to flag.... So i backed up until i could set it up... one of my squad members suggested putting a move point on the flage to get the distance..... But i didnt understand how that could help me, since i didnt see the distance to the move point either.... So is it just bad luck that i didnt see the effective distance when pointing on the move point or flag or am i not getting something here?? Also, on the map, what is the measurement of a square (the big map)?? Or any other ideas on how to be sure your at a 100 m ?

tx alot!

Put down a attack marker on the flag, and use that to figure out the distance.

You have to be 100m's...its really not that far away. Your attack marker should give you a distance reading...if not, try a defend marker :)

Alt toggles the 3d markers on and off

Yeah, Left Alt usually toggles the 3D-markers for flags and orders and such.

It will show the distance when you play on the map.
