Yesterday I had the effect on a planned route with crossed routing that route and waypoints have been partly deleted despite of “strict navigation” routing setting. I drove into the wrong direction which should have been taken on the way back, but instead of routing me back to the right way in the order of the defined waypoints, the waypoints have been deleted and route calculated new as if I was already on the way back. This should not happen at all when using the setting “strict navigation”. To my point of view this is an error that has crept in.
The annoying thing was that this was a spontaneously planned route that I hadn’t saved and I had to completely re-plan on the way. This is not a problem of kurviger, this was my fault. But the problem described before should not occur.
As told, unfortunately I can’t. I didn’t save the route.
I can only try to simulate it with this example
I drove Baumholder “Panzerplatte” (tank plate) and then at the crossing to the left into the direction “Sankt Julian”. The planned route was direction right to Friedelhausen. Instead of telling me to return and drive back, all waypoints from 2 till 5 had been deleted so as if I was on the return path.
I guess you could simulate it with every crossing routes. To my point of view with setting “strict navigation” it should never delete any waypoint except if I use the manual skipping waypoint function.
Maybe there is an if condition somewhere which doesn’t recognize correctly the setting “strict mode”.
I can only tell what happened and you can believe me it happened. I am in this forum since years and I have a big interest in Kurviger functioning reliably. This is the first time since I recognized this problem for a long time (years to be precise) and I don’t use another method than “strict navigation”.
Offline Rerouting, could be due to poor internet bandwith, but I don’t know any more. Is this a difference in route calculation when “strict navigation” is set?
The option “calculate new route in case of opposite direction” is switched off.
I have added some Waypoints (2, 3, 9, 8) to your route , so we can discuss a bit better. @Tom, from your description my interpretation is:
after passing WP2, planned route was to turn right towards WP3
but you turned left towards WP9
@devemux86 what does switched off mean if you are at WP9 heading to WP8?
Does this mean, that Kurviger treats this situation than as on route although you are heading into the opposite direction?
So the next turn instruction would be “turn slightly right onto L169”?
And than, after you have passed WP8 (still heading in the opposite direction, but staying on B420) a recalculation is triggered?
Route should than be calculated towards shaping point 4 ?
(note: WPs 2, 3, 9, 8 are just for explanation, they aren’t in the route)
GPS direction vs route direction is one of the factors that affect the off route status.
Other factors are distance from route or strict navigation must follow the waypoints.
In the example (with strict navigation) going left is already off route situation.
Also the GPS direction will be the reverse of the route direction (if enabled).
@linux-user
exactly, but I wouldn’t expect this, since I didn’t pass WP4 yet
ok, but if so, shouldn’t it then have send me back towards WP4 which is the planned route? In fact, it didn’t, all WP’s had been deleted and it has sent me back to L169 towards the destination in L176.
