Route second waypoint issue
#13
I am running OP2 on a RPi 4.
But I never installed OpenCPN using the OP2 Settings I compiled it from source because at the time of building my system there was a problem with OP2 and Opencpn... it was back in the fall so I don't exactly remember why.
I also installed all my plugins from git. Which always installs the latest.
I have another build installed from the latest img. that I could swap over to, but I found with that build, that pypilot plugin would deactivate AP every few hours, basically AP would be activated, and keeping a heading, and the boat would suddenly loose course and the screen would indicate AP was no longer activated..... really need an audible alert when that happens! Do you find any problems like that with your current setup?

The current issue I am having with pypilot plugin, is simply that it does not see or use the GPS stream, I can only use autopilot with compass mode enabled.
The current issue with autopilot route plugin is similar to what you have experienced as soon as I activate a route openCPN freezes and I have to force quite and restart.
If I disable the auto pilot route plugin I can activate a route but it does not change my heading, just keeps on the heading it was set to previously.

I am going reinstall OP2 from scratch on another card and see if I can replicate your setup. What kernel version are you running?
