Home Plants #

Hotspots are the replacement Name for Delivery Sites, Home Plants and Parking Locations. – Home Plants for a RMX Truck are a Red Polygon with a Green Flag.

– Loading Zones for RMX Trucks are Purple Polygons

– Home Plants for Aggregate Trucks are a Red Polygon with a Red Flag.

– Loading Zones for Aggregate Trucks are Red Polygons with Orange Flags

Delivery Sites #

– Delivery Sites for all trucks will appear as a circle on the map. These can be made into a Polygon if it is a complex or often used site. Once made into a Polygon; the grow and move logic we have built in to automatically make the sites more relevant will not work. These will then always appear as the polygon shape.
