Adding and Removing Waypoints

Source file: howto-road-networks-add-delete-waypoints.htm

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.
