It just shows you the distance between two points.

Left click to activate it and go from there.

Hey Bruce,

Ctrl + D will activate the range tool, sounds like you've got that down. To insert a reference point you can press Ctrl + Ins or hold Ctrl while clicking the Right Mouse button to open a context menu.

Basically the reference point is like a marker on the map. To get your sub to go there you'll need to press F3 and plot a course as described in the tutorial.

I will add the above instructions to a future version of the tutorial; sorry for the confusion.

Hope that helps!
