[QUOTE="Holydriver, post: 2034464, member: 60709"] ORION...the coolest thing ever. check the computer in the morning. notice how itll show you arriving for an air stop at 1029 or so. isnt that something you want to trust? the damned system makes us break trace just by trying to cram as many grounds in with airs as possible. then, when you have to break route to get your air off in time now you have 5 ground stops in the way on your diad screen. what do you do? go back and run those or just get them in trace with the others on that street? also, ORION will have its own idea of where you should be at a certain time. so itll be sending you to run grounds over near where one of your pick up stops are at because it thinks you are there at a certain time. well, you may be already passed that area of 20 stops away from that area. who knows? ORION certainly doesnt. as such, you are breaking trace. this is especially prevalent on a route that has a lot of apartments and strip malls. ORION sees a strip mall as one stop, not the 5 or 6 that might be in it. think of how that puts you behind schedule also, ORION will send you down a long dead end country road, deliver one stop on it, go to another street for some deliveries, and then come back to the first road and make more stops. it akes absolutely no sense at all sometimes.
