Automatically skipping shaping points Part 2

[Herman Veldhuizen]

@M.-Schrijver I agree with you. MRA Nav being a multipoint system it is no surprise that this is the core and complex.
Currently the app has one way of dealing with a missed point.
I strongly feel that it is impossible to make everybody happy with one algorithm. But I can also understand the reluctance to expose parameters to an internal algorithm.
But, as mentioned before, maybe there is a way to offer multiple algorithms whereby at least one is easy to understand and document.
I stumbled across LocusMap the other day which has Point priority and Route priority navigation. I dont know if it is of any use for us but I found it interesting.

Would it help if , having missed a waypoint, the rerouting line was a different colour to the main route, so one could figure out at a glance whether they were going back to a missed waypoint or continuing with the route. Then the app could skip the waypoint after 3 reroutes or whatever, and the rider would know which colour line to follow depending on their preference for that waypoint until the app catches up again

@Neil-q That would probably work. Any way that would visually show that you are being routed back to a skipped waypoint (shaping point) would be extremely helpful.

Thanks!
