I have seen this before, but not as an official suggestion. It would be great if, when u-turn mode is turned on for Yarbo, it enabled an alternate way of making a path through the lawn that was a ‘skip and fill’ path. ie. the u-turn doesn’t need to be so tight, it can make a curve, which would lea…
