Hello I wanted precision about how is computed the distance called `too far from track` when we follow a guided track ?


I join a picture is it the distance I call "L" in it ?


Thx,


Chris

yes this is correct. It`s shortest distance to track as you draw.


Distance to point, displayed on map is your violet line. If you`re guiding on let`s say point `D`, but between you and `D` are `B` as on picture and also `C`, final distance is violet distance + straight distance `B` → `C` + `C` → `D`

Thanks for the explanation.


I think it`s a good algorithm, this will help me to configure this distance on Locus.


Regards,


Chris
