Google Maps also stopped showing connections that involve walks longer than 500 meters. It'll just be like "no its impossible to reach the other end of Berlin in half an hour by public transport. You need to change 6 times". Because it refuses to let me cross a bridge to another busstation because US brained people dont believe in legs.

For the longest time I wished Google maps would understand that some destinations are extended objects, like, it doesn't matter which side of this area you enter because you're there once you get there. But it only knew about points.

Now they seem to have added extended targets, but they still only have one "point" that is the target, so no matter where in the target you're headed to ut always sends you to the same gate or entrance. Which is worse because now you can't override them.

@resuna @arianvp I have been known to enter latitude and longitude as my destination. Override that, algorithm!

Next year: "there's nothing at (lat,long), did you mean {location of nearest advertiser}?"

It will do that. I deliberately set a landmark at the east most parking entrance of the building. It still navigated me to the southern entrance, because that is apparently where it believes there is an entrance to that block. And then its plotted route included internal directions inside the parking section to the eastern entrance.
