Measurement tool creates terrible detours sometimes when saving new tracks
Osmand 2.8.2: The distance measurement tool would draw a correct route initially, but when I save the route it would replace some sections of the route by terribly long detours, no matter whether or not in snap-to-road mode. See the attached sample track: In snap-to-road mode the two endpoints of the track had originally (in the drawing phase) been connected by the obvious short route, but after saving the route, a terribly long detour had been created and stored instead. Is that an Osmand+ error? Is a workaround known? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Osmand" group.

Re: Traveling duration / travelling speed
I made a test: with profile car I got 431 km, calculated duration 3h58 With special profile truck 431 km, calculated duration 4h01 so I the truck was only 3 minutes slower. The changed speed data are: (example truck=80, car=110) so I think the speed reduction has only a very small effect, it is to much work for 3 minutes. Am Montag, 29.

Re: Traveling duration / travelling speed
A couple of years ago I asked the same. At that time it was not possible as the available profiles were hard-coded into OsmAnd. I expected that when a new section was added to the xml, it would automatically be picked up (as that is where the xml definition files are for), but it was not that way. I assume nothing has changed there. And maybe your next question: Slightly later I suggested to someone who wanted to have a "motor bike" profile and never used the bicycle or pedestrian parts, to implement his profiles into one of these. That only worked partially as also in that case "some things" for those profiles were hard-coded into OsmAnd. As I wanted to have that functionality I ended up with a routing.xml.caravan with an modified car section inside the /Android/net.osmand(.plus)/files folder, and renamed the file to routing.xml when applicable. So most of the time I simply used the internal routing.xml version, and a few weeks per year the (renamed) routing.xml.caravan version in the Android/net.osmand(.plus)/files folder. I use Mapfactor for car navigation, and OsmAnd for cycling/hiking. As soon as OsmAnd has a decent rendering and route calculation speed (although this one is acceptable when using a heuristic coefficient of 1.3), I will return to OsmAnd for car navigation as well. (and I don't have a caravan anymore) Harry 2018-01-29 15:22 GMT+01:00 Peter B: > Harry, thanks for your hints. > But how to do that if I don't want to change the profile of "car" but want > to have a separate profile for "truck" with the appropriate changes ? > See my questions in > https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/osmand/3YdLYzCkXJM > Regards Peter > > Am Montag, 29.

Re: Traveling duration / travelling speed
Prepare a file routing.xml, where you replace default data for car profile by values that suit the trucks better. By default, such explicit file does not exist and the regular car profile is used from the internal osmand data. But if you put in root of osmand data folder an explicit routing.xml with "truck" car profile, it takes the priority and the car will become truck. Before inserting or deleting the routing.xml, close and kill osmand ( e.g wipe it from recent apps list ) Dne 29. ledna 2018 15:22:59 Peter Bnapsal: Harry, thanks for your hints.
