6.0 Via Point announced as reached even though I did not reach it

[David 38]

Full disclosure: Via point functions are key to my MRA nav use.

I upgraded to 6.0 and ran the following route (showing only a portion):

If I intentionally miss the turn going to vp 7, its announces vp 7 as reached ............. and continues to direct me back to vp 7.

This seems like a bug to me. Or is there a new setting in 6.0 that I need to change ?

It depends on the distance you had to the viapoint.

Best to create a support ticket with full information and the app logs. You can het the logs by long pressing the version number at the bottom of the account page.

Please mention I requested this information.
I do presume you now have the latest version 6.0.0 - 532).

this also happens with shaping points in release 5. I reported it a long time ago, but the issue was closed without any info.

This is a typical scenario where this happens. Driving from bottom to top. Where I placed the red cross, the app thinks that the distance to point 2 is 0 and jumps to point 3. The good thing in this case is that it still sends me to point 2. The navigation skips point 2 first after I have ignored the instruction to turn right and crossed the round aboud.
The logic is based on straight line distance I think but it doesnt explain why the distance falls down to 0. I hope one day it will take the route into consideration first of all.

@Herman-Veldhuizen what is the distance between nr 2 and the route towards the roundabout.

Hi,

I also have another screnario I use to "check" automatically miss Shape points:

Normally, I miss waypoint 8, but even it is near road I use (green line) Next always send me back to go througt it. Only wheh I pass road cross where the arrow is, it follows to waypoint 9.

I tried to put wp 8 nearest to roundabout, but although Next announces it as "reached", the recalculation send me back again.

Is like Next want to follow path line, even if it is not necessary.

I know I'm a little curios, so, perhaps a tech doc explaining how waypoints logic for detect them (minimal distance to reach) anf how recalculation to get missed WP works...

@Lluis-Arasanz what happens if you put that point on the parallel road instead of just lost the roundabout

@marinus-van-deudekom

I'll check at evening (CET Time) and post what happens.
