Brouter in Locus

[Roman Pertzian]

Hi, I am using Brouter to plan my bikepacking routes. Can I import the Safety profile to Locus? Currently, there are three bike profiles available, all trekking:
- Trekking fast
- Trekking LCR
- Trekking FCR

I don't understand why other profiles available on the Brouter website cannot be selected in Locus.

Trekking profiles are not suitable for my bikepacking 30kg bike setup; they're either too steep or have too much traffic. I found that the Safety profile is almost perfect for me, but I can't select it in Locus. 

Is there a way to get other bike profiles into Locus Brouter?

Please check the manual page of how to use BRouter withing Locus Map app here: https://docs.locusmap.app/doku.php?id=manual:faq:how_to_navigate_offline (at bottom).

Unfortunately the manual is wrong? There is no way to manually assign a BRF file for a profile. Tapping a profile name won't do anything. I use LM Classic.
For tests purposes I try trial LM4 and even selecting BRouter does nothing as message that such a service offers  no further options shows up.

In my tests I switch the Locus file system from Android/data to Android/media. So I can see the used files with a file manager.

For BRouter I found the folder router/profiles2, it contains 4 brf files. In this folder you can now copy your favorite profile from download via the files app. And add it in the BRouter dialog as new profile (shown in the doc link above).

Great I see the profile now. Is there any easy way to edit a profile without writing the code itself? I am using https://brouter.m11n.de and I would like to have all functions of the profile but to have them as checkboxes or text fields just to type my value instead of writing the code manually...

In the latest Locus Map 4 all (almost, "chooser" is still missing) parameters should be available in the same way as on the web.
