Auto skip many waypoints by itself while I was on route. [5.2.0 - 474]

hi @m.-schrijver
I would also like to mention this does seem very strange behaviour regarding online/offline, cell coverage etc
I recently rode a multi-day tour in Ireland (9 days), and did not have any issues with regards to internet/cell coverage
I use an oukitel RT3 rugged tablet that does not have a SIM card therefore no cell or internet access and everything is navigated offline.
all maps are downloaded to the device and MRA is synced before leaving.
not much help to you I'm sorry, but this may highlight that cell/internet should not have any bearing on navigation.

@con-hennekens
This is the route i'm talking about:
https://www.myrouteapp.com/nl/social/route/14017569?mode=share

And a screenshot were I combined the recorded tracklog and the route

I was heading towards waypoint 40, around a quarter between 39 and 40, when i heared a beep for the autoskipped waypoint. At that moment i saw waypoint 53 as my next waypoint. I stopped and switched on the screen of my phone (i use Android Auto). That was the moment i saw the orange message for switching from online to offline. I went in the menu and manually selected waypoint 40 as my next waypoint. And start driving again.
Around halfway waypoint 39 and 40 i heared the beep again and saw i was skipped to 53 again. Again switched on screen of the phone and again i saw the message switching from offline back to online.
Again selected waypoint 40 as my next waypoint and from that moment on, it went well. Also i didn't see any lost cell coverage anymore.

When i look at the route. The first time it happend, waypoint 53 was one of the closest waypoints. This could explain something. But the second time waypoint 53 was definitely not one of the closest waypoints. But still it was choosen by MRA

@M.-Schrijver It's a beautifully made Route! I do not see anything strange about it.
The only little thing I see under full magnification is that at the point 40 the black line brakes.
I don't think it would cause this issue... or....

While having nothing to offer in the way of the solution, I am very interested to learn what caused it...
Following this closely.

Experienced this twice last week as well; while passing a waypoint, I got the message 'waypoint skipped'... Even though I was simply following the route and hadn't deviated from it.

@lennyo i recognise what you mean. When i make a route myself and i see this kind of things. I correct them. But i don't think they effect the navigation. I think it is more a kind of a screen error than a real opening in the routeline. This time the route came from the Route Expert library.

@hans-van-de-ven-mr.mra Skipping one waypoint without any signs why, is something i see more often. Maybe the same deeper underlaying cause. I don't know.

@LennyO the breaking happens when the shaping point is nog 100% on the route. When you move it a bit of disappears

[LennyO]

@Marinus-van-Deudekom 100%! I am aware of that. Thos was the only thing I could spot on the route.
But this should not the cause the problem with crazy skipping.

[Marinus van Deudekom]

@LennyO totally agree with you
I hope that @m.-schrijver has send in the log files so Corjan can have a look at those

[M. Schrijver]

Please remind me. How can i download the log files
