Version: unspecified (using KDE 1.2) OS: Linux took marble for a test drive, and found many issues with navigation. the biggest problem was route recalculation, one needed to go way way off course before a route recalculation was triggered. given the speed with which routes can be calculated by monav, is it worthwhile having a route recalculation e.g. every 10 seconds? ideally if marble could determine when one went off route that would be better. the mothod of route recalculation can also lead to delays, as marble/monav recalculates the route ignoring the direction you're travelling in. so will calculate a route in a direction behind you, which means you have to go even more out of your way hoping for a 'reasonable' route recalculation. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: go off route Actual Results: as above Expected Results: as soon as you go off route marble recalculates the route , and the new route should be in front of you and not behind you.
Monav 0.4 should get support to include the current heading when calculating a route. Determining when one goes off the route is not too easy due to GPS inaccuracies. A threshold too low would lead to many false positives. Including the current direction when determining the distance to the route makes sense though.
ok, thanks.
