How to Navigate Route as a Track?
-
MRA prioritizes points over the track (or route), also if the point is (just) a shaping point and you have specified that you want to use all points. So it sends you back if you missed one, even if you are already back on the track.
Corjan wrote this about the release following 5.1 (and I hope that a solution for the issue above will be found, as it is my biggest issue):
-
Rework some internal algorithms such as searching for fuel stations and skipping waypoints
-
Generic track navigation improvements

route as a track does not seem to ignore shaping points.
But it does. Instead of leading you back to a shaping point, it leads you back to the track. Depending on the density of your shaping points and the layout of the roads, the difference can sometimes be not so obvious.
The way you describe sound perfectly logical. Navigation will lead you back to the track, sometimes that can be through a previous route point, but that does not mean it took it into consideration. Since MRA is a scenic navigation app, it tries to have you drive as much of the preplanned route as possible and only skipps parts of it after multiple redirections.

Back on track, is back on track and no sending back to missed shapingpoints. This is very confusing for users.
You are deviating and you're guided back to the track/route. When you're near the route you see the blue routeline on the crossing ahead but it goes in both directions (left and right). The navigation tells you to go right. But why is the blue routeline also going left?
But okay, I turn right and after a mile I reached a shappingpoint. Then the navigation tells me to turn around and go back. So taking the left direction was the right one after all. What was the point to send me back to that point?
Did i miss something, besides a shapping point?
A must see?A basic principle of a shapping point it shapes the route nothing more and because of that it is allowed to be missed. The navigation should use this principle and not sending me back to a missed shapping point.
