Travelling route in Croatia— see screenshot. Navigating between points 2 and 3, the app wants to take you off every exit on highway u turn and back to highway. As you ignore them it carries on to next junction. This does not show on planned routr, but shows on navigation. Simlar problem to garmin 660 after support withdrawn[link text](link url)) Any thoughts—- cant get screen shot into post

@william-richards, did you use the OSM map in the planner? Change it to HERE and try again.

@william-richards is it possible that it's trying to route you back to the starting point? If had cases where I set the starting point at a gathering place ... but the starting viapoint is not close enough for MRA to know that you were there. Occurs in large parking lots for example. Simply skipping the first viapoint gets you going on the right path.

No I think this is a known issue with the OpenStreetMap.
With regard to the first route point I find that it is best to place the first route point 100m+ from the actual start point and have Calculate from current location selected. No need to skip any points then.

@Nick-Carthew I agree. I've started doing the same thing with my start points.
