Pigpen,

I just installed a fresh install of RT and confirmed that the LOS tool is working as described.

During setup, you can click and drag units to new locations. If, while dragging, you tap and release the right mouse button (while continuing to hold down the left mouse button), an LOS fan will appear indicating the visible areas from the clicked point. The same is true when dragging a node in a path or dragging to place a new node. This even works when moving obstacles and holes. Are you not seeing this behavior?

What I have found, which might be confusing, is that, if you have the view set so that you can see vehicles, and you use the flags to move a platoon or company, you will not see the LOS flag when you right click. Perhaps this is the source of your problems.
