If you're looking at this, don't forget exits. OSM has exit numbers in the form highway=motorway_junction, ref=*|name=*, and I think there must be a way to see these in instructions.
I tried
/-------- | highway=motorway_junction { name '${ref} ${name}' | '${ref}' | '${name}' } \--------
but that didn't make any difference to my directions. Hope that tiny datum is helpful! _______________________________________________ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev
I have been told to leave a motorway at the correct junction number twice, both times at the same junction. Heading north on the M6 I was told to leave at j33 (the lowercase j is deliberate). I can see nothing different about this junction to any other that would indicate why this happened I can only report that it did http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=53.9837&lon=-2.7833&zoom=14&layers=B000FTF At the time I had asked the GPS to take me to Lancaster so this was not a pre-programmed route. I can't say for sure which version of mkgmap the map was created with as it's a few weeks ago and I haven't been back since so it may well still give me the notification. I'd forgotten about it until I read this message. Paul
