One remark to make though: OsmAnd map data is created per zoom level: zoomlevel 9-10, 11-12-13-14, 15-22. This to make viewing on low zoom levels not to crowded and slow.
Already since March zoomlevels below 13 are inconsistent in details compared to full maps (issue 6645: https://github.com/osmandapp/Osmand/issues/6645) Since 1-2 months the map data in zoomlevels 9-10 are completely missing from the roads_only maps (issue 7917: https://github.com/osmandapp/Osmand/issues/7917) When creating long routes over countries/regions, you do see the routing, but not the roads on these low zoom levels (displayed in #7917) I just recompiled a fresh OsmAndMapCreator Yesterday and the error is still in there. For normal navigating it doesn't make a difference at all as you are always in zoomlevels 17+ where it functions really nice, but personally I find this pretty annoying :). Note: in the display map settings, you can also enable/disable details and hide objects.
