Continue Workplan after obstacle

When yarbo throws an error during a work plan for being stuck on an obstacle, track slippage (stuck on an obstacle), etc; how do I resume the work plan without it driving right back into the same spot? I can take manual control and move yarbo around the obstacle, then when I hit resume, it goes right back to the same spot. Is there a way to advance the work plan without ending it and trying to restart it at the same % complete? Am I missing something?

For example, I have a guy wire from a telephone pole in my yard. Sometimes Yarbo goes around it, sometimes it pushes against it until I get a track slippage error. If I move yarbo around the wire and hit resume, it goes right back to the same spot and pushes again until I get another track slippage. A method to move yarbo around the obstacles and advance the work plan % complete at the same time would be great.

It’s a frustrating game of trying to line it back up on the path line. If you move it just enough back onto the line sometimes you can get it to continue from where you are. They really need an advance forward or backwards in the current plan by 0.1% increments.

However, if you stop the plan and start it again, in the work plan history it should record at what percentage it stopped. You can move the percentage at start and hit preview to see where it lines up. It’s a giant pain, and the percentages don’t always line up because I think it includes travel time from the dock and when you restart in the area, it doesn’t match. But you can get close. It takes a lot of effort. I wish they’d address this the easiest way possible and that would be an increment forward/backwards.

Thanks Bryan, good to know the struggle is real.

Funny how often that scene gets referenced while my wife and I are watching Yarbo do its thing…:rofl:

Yes, try not to watch it getting into position. Just watch it after. LOL

Sorry to hear about the inconvenience caused by this, and thanks as well to everyone who shared possible workarounds and experiences here.

We understand how frustrating it can be when Yarbo repeatedly returns to the same obstacle location during a resumed work plan. I’ll also help pass this feedback and concern along to our team for further review and improvement consideration.
