Bug found: why it takes a long time to find new nodes

Hi ya’ll,

While doing the general cleanup to make the “user friendly” on-device API for adding new apps/plugins/remote gpio control feature, I noticed a bug.

The discovery of new nodes was supposed to happen for any packet type, but I introduced a bug a couple of months ago which caused this discovery to only happen for NodeInfo packets (which are only sent rarely to save airtime). This explains why it has been taking longer than expected for users to see position updates from other nodes.

I’m fixing the bug in my WIP branch and it will be in master soonish.
