Glossary text for Range Finder:
"Instead of making its normal attack or attacks, this character can help nearby allies find the range to their targets. All adjacent allies that do not move get +4 Attack against nonadjacent enemies this round."
Does this mean that if the affected character moves at all during the round it does not get the attack bonus?
Scenario 1:
An ERC takes a turn; moves six and attacks. A Twi'lek Scout moves adjacent to the ERC and uses Range Finder. Next phase Princess Leia moves within six of the ERC triggering an immediate attack.
Does the ERC gain the Ranger Finder attack bonus for this attack and any other attacks this round?
Scenario 2:
A Bothan Commando uses his intuition movement to get into an attack position. A Twi'lek Scout activates, moves adjacent to the Bothan Commando and uses the Range Finder ability. Then a Bothan Noble moves within six of the Bothan Commando triggering an immediate attack for the BC.
Does the BC gain the Range Finder attack bonus for this attack and any other attacks this round?

just on the BC's attack on it's turn, the first attack. so...intuition--BC doesn't "move" on his turn range finder moves adjacent BC attacks using RF & any/all SA & CE that don't say "rangefinder" BC can not move 6, because that violates the rules for rangefinder noble activates his CE lets BC attack, not move,just attack. advice- have the BC in cover  what I do is place a rangefinder in a group of shooters then when they attack they are +4

Just to be clear on this.
- BC uses intuition to get into an attack position (with cover :))
- Twi'lek moves adjacent and uses RF.
- Noble moves with six granting an immediate attack. (This is attack 1)
- BC takes it's turn attacks (attack 2) and moves six.
Does range finder work on attack 1? on attack 2? Neither? Both?

In that situation, Rangefinder will apply on attack 1.
It will not apply on attack 2 as the Bothan moves. Like with Careful Shot and Deadeye, you must declare that you will be using the ability to get the bonus.

Makes more sense now.
Last scenario.
-BC moves and attacks on its turn.
-Twi'lek moves adjacent and uses RF.
-Bothan Noble moves within six granting an immediate attack.
Does the BC receive the RF bonus on the immediate attack or does moving on a previous turn cancel this effect.

Sorry to keep this going but im not completely clear on this yet. So... On immediate attacks granted to the botan commando BEFORE his normal turn, the range finder bonus is applied and the BC does not have to declare if he will move or not on his turn. Correct? ?

You would still need to declare Rangefinder, but the no-move part would only apply to the turn it is being used on. It does not make the Commando unable to move for the rest of the round. The reason you need to declare it is that there are still ways for a character to move outside of their turn such as rolling cleave or Major Veers' CE.
