Do you think there are exact steps I may try to simulate this issue?

Thanks for the offer. You see, it's solved.

So this was about the numerous places which may restrict Tasker/Locus/TaskerAddon in doing their (inter-app) business.

a) app permissions
b) background running/allow start app from another one (in Huawei that is found under "App-Start")
c) (Vendor) OS sending apps to sleep

what app permissions do you have

Aww, you're the man, I was thinking much more complicated and checked more complicated realms (os-restrictions in allowing to start Tasker from other apps).

And it was indeed just a missing App permission of Locus Tasker - screenshot. It's almost embarassing, haha...

Solved - thank you so much!

Hey Locus Tasker addon users,

I'm using latest Tasker beta and recent Locus stable - Tasker Addon is not working for me. Is it working for you?

The Tasker dev is heavily struggling with Google and has to change a lot because of Android 13, so it's very well possible it is some kind of inter-application restriction going on here.

Tasks can still be started via Quick Bookmarks, "tasker://assistantactions?task=..."

I also asked on LocusTasker Github. https://github.com/Falcosc/locus-addon-tasker/issues/32

Thx.

You cannot view this attachment.

Another big wish: Try to integrate Falcos Tasker addon into Asamm or at least ask him, my impression is he has abandoned it, but idk.

I know very unlikely but a 3D map view would be awesome

a can of worms. SCNR.

Have you tried 3D apps for terrain on a smartphone already? I did, after all wasn't fun to use. I doubt it's worth putting it into Locus.

Andrew raises a good point, being able to better judge the terrains elevation could be improved. The simple grey hill shading isn't helpful enough.

Currently the best way IMO is using colored elevation.

But.

a) This is too hidden in Locus
b) People won't have the necessary cpt files for data/interpolators. Too complicated.
c) It is in need of a better overlay algorithm. We discussed it. See screenshot.

Really useful for planning. I've attached files for 300-900m elevation, if anyone is interested.

I think, Locus could do much more here. The information that is in the cpt files is easy, can be algorithmically generated. It could all be done by Locus internally on the fly, so that on UI side it just offers an easy way to set the currently needed elevation. Like with a slider.
Or what if Locus had a quick toggle for 2-finger pinching? In one mode, zoom map, in the other mode, change base elevation in the colored elevation... Just ideas. Maybe I'm a bit optimistic, but if colored elevation is made easy and well promoted it could be a killer feature and all of you @ Asamm millionaires. Almost.

Anything else serious?

The Lopoints system of temporary points. Awkward handling, allow predefine sets of categories etc.

Understand, but can't find any reason why this should happen. Did you tapped on the "More purchase options" button?

Of course we did. Only if the slider is on Silver it shows Locoin payment. I'm having 1300 LC.

How many LC are needed for Gold? I think it was ~2300
EDIT: Menions Screenshot says 2099

Unter LoPoints (offline) werden aber für eine selektierte Kategorie bis zu 100 Punkten der in der Nähe der Kartenmitte gefundenen Points aufgelistet.

(... und wenn man mehr haben will, muss man wie ein Idiot runterscrollen).

Hoffen wir mal, dass Menion irgendwann die Zeit findet, das System zu überarbeiten.

@Andrew, I guess Menion messed something up last time. Yes we discussed it, Menion added stuff I suggested (brouter profiles) to the full backup, but accidentally? removed from the config only backup.
How check? Look into the backup zip in <see path in screenshot, Android 10>. Screenshot: data folder inside of zip.

Okay, also mehrere Kategorien funktioniert nicht. :-)

Doch, Du fügst aus einer Kategorie hinzu, bist dann ja aus dem Dialog raus, dann gehst Du wieder rein, usw.

@Menion - Presets aren't part of the "config only" backup - I was shocked and surprised! They absolutely should be in. The config backup is pretty bare-bones. IMO also Brouter profiles should be in. And dashboards. And interpolators.

It's all settings, it's all result of our time investment, it's all small. I think it already was in.

Korrekt. Das sind ebenfalls POI aus den Offline-Datenbanken (die .db-Dateien).

Diese werden etwas anders gehandhabt. Ein altes, umständliches System (füge mal POI verschiedener Kategorien auf die Karte ein).

Sie sind temporäre, für die Sitzung existierende POI. Die Du via Siehe Screenshot entfernen kannst.

2. Screenshot: So kommst Du hin.

Sorry, habe nicht soviel Zeit. Nein, nicht nur Einstellungen, sondern das Preset-System. Damit kann man eine beliebige Anzahl an Einstellungen mit einem Klick treffen. Also, halte Ausschau nach der Doku zu Presets. EDIT: https://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:settings:presets
Insgesamt würde ich dazu raten, umfangreiche Presets für umfassendere Situationen zu erstellen ("Planung", "Wandern", "MTB"...)

Zur Inspiration ein paar Screenshots.

Das Anwenden von Presets kann dann auch via Tasker geschehen, womit vieles möglich wird (automatisieren, vom Homescreen aus steuern etc.). Nur falls Du Tasker kennst.

Solved 
In my relevant presets I had "Always screen on=Disabled"

[the screen stays on all the time.]

We're still in Systems lock screen.
I made an observation. If I use "Screen lock auto" (the Locus swipe/lock machanism) the screen stays on all the time.

Now after I unlock Locus, swiping the "Drag to unlock" bar (we're still in Androids lock screen) the short display timeout applies again!
