Just finished a cross-country trip
Quote from dcumpian on 04.09.2021, 06:43Hello,
I just finished a multi-day cross country trip and would love to see an option to create a route towards a specific destination, but only travel xxx miles. Picking a stopping point for a day of travel wasn't as easy as it could be and I ended up using Google Maps to find a stopping point, then switching top Scenic to route it. Just a thought.
Secondly, I know the Scenic 3 will use a different map that I hope will fix the strange excursions on a route. I've had enough experience with Scenic now that I can usually tell when I should ignore directions to turn up some farm road that ends up returning to the main route, but it can be pretty annoying.
Overall, great app and I love using it.

If I understand correctly, you are looking for a feature that automatically gives you a suggestion for a multi-day trip to a certain destination, splitting the route up in X number of days and also suggesting where to stopover and possibly lunch stops? I like the suggestion and would actually use such a feature myself. I’ll put it on the list. It’s a big one though so will take a while.
Scenic 3 should indeed resolve the ‘strange excursions’.
Cheers,
Guido

I'm thinking more like, I did 500 miles today, and tomorrow I only want to do 400, so build a route that gets me 400 miles closer to my ultimate destination. I tend to build daily routes for these long trips, but I could see the value of your approach as well.
