Furuew enhancements?

General Discussion

I’m a novice so probably out of topic or ignorant but why Zwift:

  1. does not aloud to freely start on any place of the map without have to choose a “circuit”
  2. what about a tool where to build our own route (kind of ZwiftMap inside ZwiftCompanion)
  3. have an elevation diagram of the route (as in komoot) so to know in advance (BEFORE starting) how many climbs, for how long, with which percentage
  4. When finished a performance we should be able to save but continue instead of quit Zwift
  5. Is it possible to have allways the average kw and speed during the performance?

Item 3 does exist, but Zwift’s home page is not the best place to look for it, Zwift Insider has a complete list of all routes, with links to maps and elevation profiles for them

I’m not sure why but this was their design choice. There have been some previous suggestions like this, like this one.

This one they have spoken about. They want to pack people onto a limited number of worlds and routes so you see more people. That is a design goal. People who don’t care about the social element are not the primary user they have in mind for the game.

Aside from Zwift Insider as was mentioned, I also recommend zwiftmap.com

Not sure if this has been proposed before but you could create a new topic in Feature Requests for it. I doubt it would get much attention but it’s up to you. There are lots of reasonable ideas about how to improve the game that are never implemented unless there is very big demand, and even then sometimes they say no or don’t say anything.

Average power in Watts is available in the HUD settings. Average W/kg or speed are not. The available options are documented here:

There are also some 3rd party tools you could use such as sauce4zwift, or a cycling computer.

By the way your point 4 might also be satisfied by having a lap button that you could press at the end of a specific performance. There is significant demand for that feature. If you like that idea, click the Vote link at the top of that topic and leave a comment there expressing your support:

I contacted Jesper recently inquiring about Zwift map and he indicated that there probably won’t be any more upgrades.

That’s the other Zwift Map :joy:

My mistake.
I really liked Zwift hacks Zwift map and would use it after every expansion.

It is possible to show average power in the HUD now but not sure of average kilowatts, I’m not powerful enough to have average kilowatts. :wink:

Being able to set your own routes would be nice but probably complicated.
