Sim issue with saveWaypoints

In the sim using 3.1.5, the following sometimes doesn't work.

Toybox.PersistedContent.saveWaypoint(location, {:name => name});

It works fine in the device (a real 1030).

    That's about right.

    Though, the devices can store many more locations than 16.

    ======================

    When you download a course, you get a handle to the course object created.

    saveWaypoint should return a handle to the location object.

    And one should be able to get the name and the lat/lon coordinates from the object.

    Looks like the sim has a limitation of 10 waypoints, whereas it's 16 on the device. I did also see what you were saying where the sim doesn't add the number on to the end of duplicate names (testing on an actual Forerunner 945 acted the same way as well).

    So to sum it up. here's what I've found:

    • Sim has a different limitation on the number of waypoints than devices
    • Sim and Device don't notify you when you have hit the limit, so it just seems like nothing happens
    • Sim doesn't change duplicate waypoint names like some devices do

    Does that sound about right? Let me know if there's anything I might be missing. Thanks!
