The method getDistanceByRoute(double, double, double, double) is undefined for the type Car Anylogic

Question

i'm quite new in Anylogic and i'm working on a model where some cars of a population travell from a point A to a point B using a GIS route that I have created in the GIS map.

I need to use the function getDistanceByRoute to make some calculations using latitude and longitude but it doesn't work and this error is given:

Description: The method getDistanceByRoute(double, double, double, double) is undefined for the type Car. Location: dinamic3/Car/moving_to_CS - State

I' can't figure out how to fix the problem, i tried the function getDistanceGIS and it worked but i need to use getDistanceByRoute which is more precise with the distance measure.

For this function to work, you need to reference the map to which you want it to apply:

map.getDistanceByRoute(double, double, double, double);

So make sure to add the "map." to your code, if this is the name of your map object.
