Waypoints in bus routes.

Is it possible yet to add waypoints to bus routes? I would love it if the sat nav didn't take your bus down off road tracks or force a u-turn when there is a route around the block.

 

yeap, We had that problem a lot.

You just need to add more information

Code:

            "navhelp":{
                "wcu_bs_13":["wpTown_16","Bridge36_3","Bridge36_1"],
}

You need this per bus route.

The very first name is the waypoint where the stop is located. And in the array it's all waypoints 'you need' to go trough.
This way you force the GPS to show the correct road and avoid weird path or wrong way driving.

 

I have added them to my buslines.json and they run correctly now. For anyone who wants to see how they are implimented into the file:

Code:

            },"previews":[
                "island_shuttle_b.png"
            ]
        },
    ]
}

After "navhelp" you state the bus stop that is hard to get to and then list all the waypoints that the route has to follow to get there once that stop is up next.

Thanks for your help.
