Many problems navigating my route
-
@Leike-Lodiers thank you for answer.
I have gold subscription.
The problems I had were far away from start/finish point. The fact is that te route planned at a certain point, became different from the one saved, with some deviations kilometers away and then back on the same (wrong) road. Sorry, I didn't screenshot them. Yesterday I tried again to put in navigation mode and the problem did't appear.
Next time I will look at with attention where waypoint are placed, surely. And i will be sure to use Here maps in planning.PS: what about Cheegee on your BMW bike?
@Gianluca-0 what about chigee? Works fine for me until now. Have it about 1000km now. Have to get used to handle the bmw wheel for operating chigee.

@Nick-Carthew sooooo clear!
Thank you!I imagine that "Tomtom" option is to be used if you are going to export the route to a tomtom navigator.

Correct, also some BMW navigation devices use the TomTom map.

The MRA route planner and OSMand do indeed work very well together. I use MyRoute app most of the time for navigation, but do occasionally use OSMand for motorcycle navigation using Android Auto on my Africa Twin. OSMand follows the track of the route not the route itself so rarely goes "wrong". However, the track does not include "Via Points" on a route designed using MRA and provides no option to skip a portion of the route automatically or otherwise as it is following the track not a series of waypoints. I'd imagine you've maybe gone astray in your route planning somewhere or there are specific issues with the mix of hardware in use? I've been using the navigation app with AA on my Africa twin for over a year now in preference to my Garmin Zumo XT with very few navigation issues.

hi @gianluca-0
this looks like a very nice route, albeit very long for single route.
as a small example I looked at the Trieste area of your map and if you look at the screen shot you will observe the many different routes available with Here, OSM and Tom Tom,
when I plan a long route I always use the compare tool to see of there are any other possible ways I could be routed. I would then add more shaping points to force the route to the way I want, some will say this is excessive, but it works for me and I very rarely if at all stray from my original planned route, except for the dreaded umleitung of course.

And do no forget to test "disable seasonal closures" to see if it changes the route mileage and takes a different pass...

@paul69 I never userd before shaping points, I hava to try.
What's the issue about too long tracks?
Good advice, thank you -

@Lenny-O Uh... I'll sure give a try to this feature
Thank you -
Well, raeading your precious indications, I have replicated the issue and understand why it happened.
The track was made with Tomtom map and reading it with MRA navigator gave this crazy result.

Many of you understood the snag.
Thank you all a lot, my next trip (last August week, about 2500 km in Romania) will be smooth ! I'll cut it in daily tracks of 3/400 km and use the correct map to plan !

hi,
there is nothing wrong with long routes, if I were to ride this route it would be split into 2/3 separate routes and start and finish at the hotels
