    for your information,

    Did a trip the day before yesterday and never use real hard waypoints. I am the only one in the group using MRA Navigation. Can't get anyone excited about it yet. I always place as many waypoints as possible for my MRA navigation otherwise the route, after calculation by MRA, deviates too much from group members who use Garmin and TomTom.

    Option "Automatically skip waypoints (beta)" is active.
    Now, while driving the route, Navigation persistently indicated 2 times that I had to return to a previous route point, which in this case was skipped due to road works.

    What also turned out to be sensible was that if you restart Navigation, coffee break, somewhere during the route, it is wiser to choose "Near route point #" at option "CHOOSE DEPARTURE POINT" than to choose "Nearest route point". The nearest one was behind me and MRA was determined to start there. What you just see at the first exit while the route continues straight ahead.```

      That's true. Navigation, as defined in the code apparently, gives 3 instructions to get you back to that the missed waypoint, before skipping it automatically, for which it'll provide a message. Now: Navigation is NOT capable of skipping multiple waypoints at once. I.e.: you have multiple waypoints on that road with roadwork: Navigation will try to get you back to each of them issed waypoints 3 times per missed waypoint. This gets very troublesome and should be fixed in the future. How? Don't know.
