Thread: Destination announcement

After digging deep into zip files, I think that I managed to understand a bit more about iGO announcements.

The announcement “You have reached your destination" is registered in config_database.lua file (iGO_Luna\content\voice folder - inside <chosen voice>.zip) as:
L"YOU_HAVE_REACHED_YOUR_DESTINATION-E ",
It is road and distance-dependent. I think also speed dependent. Not so sure about the last one.
For sure I hear it 200 meters before destination, while driving on highways and 70 meters before destination while using iGO on normal streets.
I suppose that this is determined under rangefun section (in config_condfun.lua file - same folder and voice zip file) and there is no 10 meters option.
I tried to change the relevant announcement distances in this section but the app was crashing. There might be more things to change.

So as a solution:
• I changed the announcement to: L"YOU_ARRIVE_AT_YOUR_DESTINATION-E " (Not REACHED…).
• I clicked in cockpit settings -> Action on arrival at destination -> Children Left Alert -> Distance to destination - 10meters (If I chose 0 meters then the alert is not audible. I might have to manipulate more things in the files)
• I changed (in language files) the Children left alert to “You have reached your destination”.

With this way I hear the below:
At 200 or 70 meters before destination: ”You arrive at your destination” (iGO destination announcement)
At 10 meters before destination: “You have reached your destination” (UX utility)

If the announcements will be so close together, that by the time the 200/70m announcement is done talking, the 10m announcement will go off, I will try to delete the first announcement (from the config_database.lua file) as it is useless to me. Anywise there is always or most of the time a “ You arrive at your destination after 300… 200… meters” announcement prior the above two.


Waiting for any other hint or proposal.
