Code for Laser Range Finder?

Equip binoculars> place square reticule over object> press Fire button> range-to-target appears.

I use this thing in-game, especially for long-range shots with M107/M82A1 (Uphill Battle), for example. It's also helpful when aiming the B-300/MK153 Mod 0/SMAW-- anything over ~250m, aim a little high, and the PF-98/Queen Bee-- anything over ~300m, aim a little high.

But is there code for it? What I mean is, can I force a player to use that laser range finder in order to complete an objective? If so, this would be beyond awesome. If not, I have to shake my fist at Codemasters for wasting an awesome in-game tool.

As far as I know... a fist shake will be required.

*shakes fists and swears*

Thanks anyway, TJ.

The closest you can come is use the code discussed to trigger a mock communication like "target identified - bearing [25] degrees [1243] meters" - using a narrow cone from a required vantage point at a set distance should make someone use the bino to find a fixed target
