I have a question about sorting in a stream. When sorting using a single comparator, o is an RS2Object and the reference to realDistance is found.

objects.getAll().stream.sorted(Comparator.comparingInt(map::realDistance)).findFirst();

When I try to use a second comparator to tie-break, o is an object and the reference to realDistance and bar are not found.

objects.getAll().stream.sorted(Comparator.comparingInt(map::realDistance).thenComparingInt(foo::bar).findFirst();

I am also unable to reverse the result of the sort.

objects.getAll().stream.sorted(Comparator.comparingInt(map::realDistance).reversed()).findFirst();

What is the correct way to tie-break a sort in a stream?

your parentheses are messed up lol. You're welcome

I typed an MCVE by hand, parentheses are not the problem.

Let's see your implementation of bar in foo?

Make sure you specify the type as RS2Object for the first functional interface input (should carry to the chained thenComparing)

Comparator.<RS2Object>comparingInt(map::realDistance)

Also be aware that sorting all objects by realDistance is very computationally expensive.
