Hello,
We have a Go Camper and it came with a Europe map. I have added Algeria. I have tried to have it find a route from Brighton in UK to a town in Algeria but it does not. I assume this is because the route crosses two maps?
Is there any workaround for this or do we just have to wait until we land in Algeria to get that part of the route? Also, is it possible to plan a route in Algeria if I add a 'home' there? I tried this and the system did not like it.
Thanks for help.

SuperuserHi @Dave9998888888888888
If you know the ferry terminal in Spain do a route to there. I would identify my Stops on the route save them in My Places and then each day set a route from where I am to the next Stop until you reach the Ferry Terminal. That way when you do each stretch you can be sure the unit will respond to Traffic. When you get to the Ferry Terminal then switch map and as you are waiting to get off the ship Select the destination in Algeria which you have pre-saved in My Places when you had the map open before you leave home.
If you create routes in My Drive and save them to My Routes then sync to the unit the Track is a fixed route. If you miss a turning it will keep directing you back to take the correct turning and not calculate a route from where you are on the wrong road to get you to your next stop.
