Hi Bernhard, Thanks for the feedback.
thanks for the great new feature. I did today a test drive with R876 of the nod branch. Overall I liked the routing and I was not lost. Here are my notes:
- I suggest to skip the ref tag in brackets for street names if the name tag is present. e.g. Example Street (St 2359) The added ref name seams to disturb the semantic analyzer of the nuvis text to speed engine. Seams to cause wrong grammar. This sounded better with the polish version.
The ref tag in brackets is added by the rules in resources/styles/default/lines so you can change it to suit your own requirements. For me, how it is at the moment is OK.
- It seams that restrictions are not implemented. Nuvi tried to route me through a "destination only" road. Didn't happen with polish version.
Right, I shall look into that.
- Map generation with bigger maps seams to be rather time consuming. Generation of my map (160km x 160 km) takes now 19 minutes. With the old method it took 3 minutes for osm2mp and 4 minutes for mkgmap. I ran hprof but I didn't find the time consuming portion until now.
OK - if you find out where the time's going, please say. Cheers, Mark
