    when entering a new waypoint on a route how do i force myroute to use the shortest distance between the previous way point and the current waypoint i am trying to set?

    sometimes i experience myroute retracing the route backwards and doing a large loop between the previous waypoint and the current waypoint i am trying to set.

        @David-Ghosh Add a route point on the roads that you want to use is the best option.

              @David-Ghosh when something like that happens, 90% chance it's due to that particular street situation (one-way street, off-road, seasonal closure, limited traffic etc). So make sure settings are all good.
              If nothing of this helps, the way to force a straight line is to press the waypoint and then select "skip"Screenshot_20250304_000151.jpg .
