Chuck88 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 N-S-E-W, BorisM, abb1, diaftia, misterblue, IDT or any other expect: As many of you know already, the AVOIDANCE COMMANDS, such as Avoid Road/Street, Avoid Maneuver, Avoid X km or X miles on the current road, issued during navigation are NOT working in many, if not all of our mods (mine included). The problem is that the iGo command relies solely on the actual cursor position along the calcalated route, but this cursor DOES NOT increase to match the next route segment during navigation, turn after turn. So if you issue AVOIDANCE commands immediately after route calcalation or recalculation (before the first turn has occurred), it actually works, but after that, no more luck because the cursor remains static on the first turn. Maybe there is a way but I can't seem to be able to find a way to get the current "route segment index" of the calculated route versus the current GPS location ... So I (with MB) have tried by creating an OBSERVER model based on change of "distance to next turn", and by increasing the route segment index based on this parameter (i.e. if distance to next turn is greater than previous logged distance, increase the index counter and change the cursor to this new location). This method was a hit-and-miss, not reliable at all and probably CPU intensive (as the distance change every second)! Any suggestion? Any help would be greately appreciated!

misterblue Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 For now I have not found other solutions for this This method was a hit-and-miss, not reliable at all and probably CPU intensive (as the distance change every second)! I already use a watch of this type for my mod MB-IDT3.0-5 (release not public at time) and i have not seen a slowdown of running the avic?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chuck88 Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Looks like that we are alone in our quest to fix all those little irritating things in life ... Anyone else? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
misterblue Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Indeed, there are not many people who are really interested in improving the functioning of iGo That's why I often say that what interests me is to improve iGo and then make the interface prettier lol!

Chuck88 Posted February 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Any progress in your side MB? My experience was hits and misses! If so, I guess you can continue the PM that we had started. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
