MIspunch when passing an extra control

[Robyn Rennie]

Has the behaviour changed for MapRun6 when it punches extra controls? e.g today on a course a runner went from S1 to 1 then on the way to 2 control#10 registered. The runner continued to 2, 3, 4 etc finally coming back through 10 to the finish. All controls showed as green but the result recorded as a mispunch. When I went into the admin screen to fix the result, controls 2 through 10 were "unchecked" in the list of controls even through they showed green on the route. This happened to a couple of other competitors as well. I don't remember this behaviour from before. It used to just ignore any mispunches just like the SI units do.

Thanks,
Robyn

Robyn,

No - the logic has not changed. You are able to visit extra controls on a line course without invalidating the run. Maybe there was something unusual on this particular event.

Let me know what event it was and I can have a closer look.... to see if there is a scenario we are not handling correctly.

The thing that comes to mind is that controls turn green on the screen, if they are punched at least once…. but that doesn’t mean they were punched in the right order.
