same as Binoculars basically but tells range and has a NV mode

I will swap you for standard binocs if you have no use for them

I've got a pair of normal binocs as well. Whenever I press the button to use them, it just brings up the normal ones rather than the rangefinder.

If it works the same way as it does in the base game, you have to equip the rangefinder in the binocular slot on your gear page. Think it's in the top left corner of the paper doll.

Equip them and press B, it'll tell you the distance to an object. Btw, both Binocs and Rangefinders can be used with night vision.

You need to remove Binoculars first since they are both activated with B

yes binocs can be used with NV but rangefinder has its own NV that works without you needing NV ;)
