Yes but I do not have the ferry check box on my GPS.
I'd like to do a recap on routing options that I have and how they work. Please correct me if I am wrong:
U-turns: done internally by the routing algorithm
-- Well it kinda could be handled by tweezing arcs, but more or less this is useless.
Toll roads: not implemented yet in mkgmap?
-- long ago implemented - you can use add toll=yes.
I'd have to try that.
Highways: by road type
-- what kind of unit to you have to get this working. Never seen any Garmin GPS where one could exclude highways based on type.
I was just assuming here. So you're saying it does not work at the moment?
Well I have never seen such a setting where you can exclude roads by type from routing. 0x01-0x13 is routable, and then with limitation 0x1a and 0x1b so how the fuck are you excluding a road type? The GPS does not know whether 0x07 is a motorway or a residential road.* I don't say it does not work, I say excluding by road type does not exist!* Some GPS and Garmin Mobile XT have the possiblity to avoid: Major Roads, Medium Roads and Minor Roads I have not found out what is behind these settings. I do assume: Major roads avois road_class 3+4, Minor Roads avoids road_class=0, and Medoi, Rpads avoids road_class =1+2 But never really tried this out.
