The new Return Method toggle feature in the schedule settings seems to miss the mark. If selecting At Set Time, it appears to not only redock at that time but also terminate the in-progress Work Plan. If selecting After Completion, it ignores the schedule altogether and just continues working through the quiet period until the Work Plan is complete. My request is for the schedule to cause the rover to suspend it’s in-progress Work Plan at the end time and continue that Work Plan where it left off at the start time. My intention for setting a schedule is to prevent it from running all night (creating noise and cutting through dew) but not at the expense of never completing my Work Plan, which requires multiple days given the lawn size. ---
