Roel and gfRally asked for three things: how far the car goes on a tank, how long you are willing to sit behind the wheel in one go, and how much driving belongs in a day. They are one feature. All three are a threshold, a walk over the legs, and a finding. Two things they deliberately are not. They are durations and distances rather than times of day, because with no stop pinned to a clock the cascade produces no times at all, for any stop, and a limit on an hour would simply never fire. And the day limit is called driving time, not travel time, because the figure it is measured against is exactly that: the badge beside it, which counts no time spent at stops and no leg to a hotel. The card says so out loud rather than leaving it to be discovered. The range budget carries across midnight, since a tank does not empty overnight, and resets after a finding: without that, 1800 km on a 600 km range flags every leg after the first overrun. Only fuel and charging reset it, never the other four service kinds — a two-hour lunch fills nothing, and nobody here knows whether the restaurant has a charger in its car park. Kilometres in storage, the traveller's own unit on screen. Skipping that round trip means an imperial user types 400 meaning miles, 400 km is stored, and the warnings arrive a third too early from then on. No stop is suggested and no vehicle is modelled. OSM does not know what car this is and neither do we, so the range is a number you type. Furkot does the same, for the same reason.
