OK, it took a bit longer than expected, but
version 0.14-1
is here with
turn-by-turn navigation
and
espeek voice directions
!
How to use it ?
get a route
go to
route -> current route -> tools
(or through a button on the map screen for point2point routing)
click the "start navigation" button
select the starting point (first/closest)
follow the directions and watch for cliffs, cars, bears, missing bridges, etc.
How does it work ?
The direction messages are displayed on the screen and also spoken by espeak.
For each point, you get two voice messages, for example:
"in 250 meters, turn right to XY street" - some distance before the point
"turn right to XY street" - after reaching the point
To "reach" a point, you have to get to certain distance from it (by default 30 meters, but this distance can be configured in
options->navigation
). After "reaching" a point, the navigation switches to the next point, until the last point is "reached".
The point corresponding to the current message is indicated by a red circle + current distance is shown.
So thats it, its quite simple but seems to work OK.
If you have any idea how to improve this, let me know.
