Waypoint Arrival and Continue Trip

[drtimhill]

Quick (and probably dumb) question about waypoints in the Nav system (and especially with FSD beta)...

If you setup a nav route with waypoints, when the car reaches the first waypoint it just stops (if you are sing FSD beta). Ok, how do you get it to proceed to the next waypoint on the route?. I can find no "continue trip" button in the UI, and there is no mention of this in the user manual that I can find.

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious. I would guess you have to put the car in park or something, but that seems an odd restriction .. seems that Tesla are assuming you actually want to stop and get out of the car at every waypoint?

Covered MANY times. You must either put in Park and get out of car or .../Edit/X (remove) that destination from the list.

Here's a video I created explaining how to use Waypoints effectively.

hmm well, several searches of the forums didn't turn up anything when I looked .. care to provide a link/links?

One of those times when the real requirement is different from the ask.

What we actually want is ability to dictate what exact route to take - we thought waypoints would let us achieve that. Turns out Tesla built Waypoints as a way to travel to different places ... rather than as a routing mechanism.

Yeah .. as others have noted, the workaround is to delete the waypoint as you approach it, causing the car to re-route to the next waypoint. A bit of a hack though.

Have you tried simply putting it in park then back in drive?
