Hi Greg, my understanding is this: The additional nodes (only) help when you create multiple maps. For example, if you have a script that creates a map for a given geofabrik extract by executing splitter and mkgmap. If you feed that script 1st with Maine and 2nd with New Hampshire you get two different maps with overlapping tiles. If you use osmconvert to merge the two extracts before using the script there are no overlapping tiles and thus there is no need for the additional nodes.

(Separately, I wonder why --route isn't default. Does anybody really want a non-routable map these days? But that's a separate, very old question.) I am glad to see this option. I have been avoiding the issue by using the geofrabrik US northeast option. I wonder if it should be using states (admin=4) in addition, in the US. _______________________________________________ mkgmap-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev
