Version 1.41 und Gps 1.40 ist online!
Changes:
A bug was fixed that could cause version 1.40 to take a lot of time to plan routes; Meanwhile, technical research has led to route planning that is much faster than any version ever was.
Research based on a lot of user feedback has meanwhile led to more optimal routes.
The "route" tab of your preferences now provides advanced control over the way routes are calculated. It offers three choices:
Fast - This option produces routes similar to version 1.20, but often in far less time.
Normal - This is now the recommended default, and produces more optimal routes (based on a lot of user feedback). Compared to previous versions, it is usually a bit faster on short distances and a bit slower on long distances.
Strict - Simply put, this option exhaustively checks "every little alley in the country in the hope it provides a short-cut that will reduce your trip by some extra seconds or meters". Such calculation may take quite a lot of time, especially on long distances.
Several small improvements were made to the "Show next highway" option;
Support for more BMP formats was added to provide customized Point-of-Interest symbols;
the compass now emphasizes "north" in red;
