Planned Route versus Actual Route - and how to get Scenic to recalc
Quote from Marts on 06.05.2025, 19:17Yesterday I went for a quick blast with some friends up into the hills to an old logging town for lunch at a nice cafe.
When I planned the route I expected that we'd go there via one particular road. Of course, on the day we went down an entirely different way.
See the images for the planned and actual routes.
When I left home and met up at the petrol station and then left it kep trying to get me back onto the route.
And when we got to our destination Scenic said that we had an hour to go and 95 km of travelling.
What settings do I need to change to get it to recalc the route once we've departed from it?
Thanks
As you can see in the images you can enter the town (Noojee) from the east, which is where we rode, or from the west which was the planned route.
PLANNED ROUTE
ACTUAL ROUTE
Oh, this is where we stopped for lunch.
Looking down towards Noojee from the hill that you descend to get there (from the South and West).
Photo taken on the way home.
Note: the route home was simply tapping on "Home" on the "Where to" screen. It then acted normally and when I deviated from its calculated route it quickly recalculated correctly.

If I see correctly, you missed stop 1. There is no way to automatically skip a stop. So, it makes sense that it would try to get you to stop 1. You can only skip a stop manual.
Have a look here for the detour behaviour settings including how to skip stops: https://scenic.app/help/detour-behaviour-scenic/

Stop 1 was the petrol station where I met up with the lads.
And the route as shown is correct in that you have to ride a 100 metres or so in order to do a U-turn to go back to the petrol station.
But looking at the route it goes right past it. That bit is what I don't understand.
Anyway, I'll have a read of your instructions.
Thanks
