Route Drawing Tool - Extending past Waypoint

Hi

I am drawing a route between two way points on a map in BaseCamp, and for some reason the route keeps extending slightly past the target way point and then looping back to it - instead of just connecting the two way points. Why is this and what do I need to do to prevent this from happening? ciq.forums.garmin.com/.../1396492.jpg

Well the issue will be the maps, not BaseCamp. It can only route along paths/trails/roads etc that are a) on the map and b) marked as routable in the maps database. Note you can join a routable section…

I can also reproduce the exact opposite, routes that work perfectly well, so it can hardly be down to a bug in BaseCamp or I'd see it. What I can't replicate is your system, or the maps and workflow you use.

I can also produce routes that work well. Nobody said it happens all the time or under all circumstances. What do you think, that people wasting their time making something like this up for the benefit of...erm...nothing?

Attach such a route here then, and confirm which map it is, and I'll have a look if I can … I have various OSM maps and CN EU and CN NA.
