So after testing a bit more with the maps of yesterday, even though the routing worked over longer distances, the major feature of the openmtbmap – to guide you to the nicest ways was more or less lost. I went back to the style-files that I used when first offering maps on here (they had quite good routing AND worked over longer distances) and reworked the rules from ground up.
Even though technical routing based on grades and scales would provide the nicest routing, I have backed back and give preference to bicycle and mtb routes. The maps of 10.05 were the most extreme leaning towards technical assesination only, and well routing over 5km often didn’t work. It’s sad, but Garmin algorithms will not work if there are no more or less straight ways or at least ways leading towards the destination with high priority.
Setting up the routing parameters will be even more vital for the maps of the next updates. I figured out the following useful settings (go on and experiment further…)
MTB scenic – don’t route over too long distances – well mapped area (this includes mtb:scale and/or mtb routes) Car/Motorcycle, no avoidances, move slider 1 or […]
