Can you make this available in the taiwan App Store too? It's now telling me it's only available in the us store ><Destination chargers are there too!

Clearly the optimum route is to never go home.Also, when I hit "Optimize" on that trip, it just removed the return leg completely. I couldn't figure out how to add it back either.
I am also having an issue I can't figure out. I input a trip I am planning to make to visit family. It is an "out and back" trip, so I entered my home address as the starting point and also entered the destination address (where my family lives). I then selected the "out and back" check box. It calculated the route, but when I go into the details it doesn't have me stopping to charge anywhere (its about 170 miles each way), and it seems like it might be starting me back at 100% when I leave my family, but I am not going to be charging there. I have to drive back one what I have left when I arrive. Not sure what is going on, but I tried all the various options and couldn't figure it out.

Yes. It does Stick. When you create a trip it uses what's in the settings for origin SOC and any waypoints added by you or the app. Then if you later change the settings it does not change your saved trips SOC. They keep what you had unless you manually change them. But the any auto chargers get the new settings value. I might change this behavior but that is the way it is today.Btw, the first trip I ever planned I did use an initial SOC of 100%. Perhaps somehow this setting got "stuck" after I initiall set it?
That does seem like a bug. Can you share the trip with [email protected]. Please include your car details and a copy/paste of the issue. I will check it out.I go to the SOC tab. It shows I start with 100% charge. I then select the departure waypoint. It also says 100%. I then go to the edit trip details page. It says 85% for departure SOC.
There is a bug I am working on that sounds related to this. Just to be sure can you share the trip with [email protected]. Please include your car details and a copy/paste of the issue. I will check it out.If I ask for a 55% SOC at the destination it says there are no SC's along the way. I have to manually add the SC, coming and going, before it will charge there like it should. Maybe part of the SC state data error already known?
There are a few instances when you have added chargers before a destination on and out and back trip that can get the app confused and you have to optimize twice. Not sure if this is it or not. Sometimes it has to do this in two passes because it can get you to the destination OK but until it does that, it does not know enough about the trip to get you home. After the first pass it looks at your consumption and checks out all the chargers it passed on the way to your destination and any very close by. Knowing all of this it may in fact add another charger that it feels it will need to get you back, even though it did not need it to get you there. It's actually quite complex. I suppose I could automatically do the two pass thing behind the scenes and will look at doing so in a later release.I had a similar problem getting out of AZ heading to NC. It showed a bunch of SC's along the way, I think it said my SOC at the first one (was -675%, and wouldn't charge at any of the SC's. This seems to be fixed now.
Not quite yet. While the other options are coded, they have not been fully flushed out yet - hence the TBD on the Features List.How do you get the app to let you select something other than "Minimize Travel Time" in the Settings? I bought the Pro upgrade. I want to plan trips avoiding any stops for charging to the extent possible, which generally requires staying off the interstates. Are the other settings not functional yet?

I am estimating less than 30 days, and hopefully just a few weeks for most of those to be turned on. Unfortunately the least stops will probably be the last one.
The algorithms will not be strong enough to force you off of the highways as I am still using the best time routes between chargers. It will just minimize your stops. The total trip time could be considerably longer.
Sounds like a great idea and a cool feature. Maybe some day I can get to that.It is amazing how much less energy you use when you take a route that follows the interstate fairly closely but not on it.
Are you sure it's gone? Use the little map icon in the center of the screen to see the list of both segments. If the return trip goes back exactly the same way (it often does but does not have to, especially if you added waypoints on the way out), it will just overlay on top of each other. There is a slight color change on the route because of this, but it's not noticeable.Also, when I hit "Optimize" on that trip, it just removed the return leg completely.

It is supposed to do what you are asking for. You have to optimize both trips in time order. I know that sucks but that is a limitation right now. It hints at that by making the second segment destination white.However, it was like it treated the two segments as completely separate without taking into account the fact that I had to get back home. It said to just drive straight to my destination with no stop to charge, arriving at 22%. Then when I switched to the second segment it said I didn't have enough charge to get back home (or to the supercharger) and said the trip was impossible. Well duh, it should have planned a charging stop on the way down so that enough power would be available to get back to the supercharger on the way home. Definitely a problem.

If after optimizing both segments, this does not fix your issue, share your trip with me ([email protected]) so I can check it out. Just copy your comment above so I know the context. I get lots of trips daily to play with.
I will admit that this out and back thing is very complex, but it should be the most useful type of trip. It is extremely nuanced in deciding how and when to charge before and/or after your destination. What us humans can do easily, is very hard to put into a set of rules a computer can follow.
This makes logical sense. Historically it came about another way. I will revisit this in the future.I don't see why an out and back trip isn't just treated as a single trip with a waypoint in the middle. That would make the most sense. It was very frustrating trying to figure out what the app was doing.
