Adding and Removing Waypoints
Waypoints are points on a road network which are specially flagged by the user. Below is a table showing what types of waypoints are available in Evolution.
Type | Description |
Source | Represents an entry point onto the road network from the mining pit or a stockpile. |
Destination | Represents an exit point from the road network to a destination such as a mill, stockpile or a waste dump. |
Permission | Represents a point in a pathway which only accepts material transported by certain kinds of trucks. |
Force | Represents a point in a pathway which included trucks must pass through. |
Evolution represents waypoints using what is best described as a 3D tear drop doughnut symbol.
