fixed [v2.9.9.2474] Enroute "Distance to Point" value calculated very wrong

[Pillowcat]

With multiply waypoints in route, farer waypoint is on the list from current position, more error value of 'distance to point' become:

Hello @Pillowcat

Are you attempting to set up waypoints outside the playable map area? It looks like it from your images but it could just be a section missing map coverage.

Can you supply a track of this event?

Nope, all used coordinates listed under spoiler in the first post to check, maybe it is another bug, but all waypoints are pretty far from borders of the map.
Sorry, have no track, only video by which all coordinates was captured and listed here (It was very tedious process). It was on multiplayer server "Grim Reapers Battlegrounds Server UK" with mission name "Operation Clear Field v123_rev4m_ctld_iw", but i bet you can recreate it without being there.

 

Added: Problem is not only with particular ending points of route, error gradually progressing with distance from starting point as almost non visible to hundred of kilometers per one real on ending side.

Btw real route length is something below 130km, way less than thousand+ as on pics, cant remember exactly now, but you can calc it from given values (distances between points on the right column of table are calculated real ones, not from DCS AH64).

video with route creation:

 

 

[Pillowcat]

@Lord VaderWaypoints with exactly same coordinates on same spot, being added to the route sequently shows distance to them being different.
in example 3 waypoints (W22,W23,W24) placed on the routeline in between of W01 and W02 in exactly same position ~0.5km from W01, added in the route between these endpoints:

Thanks, we're analysing this situation.
