Tracker role in 2.0.15

tracker role definition in 2.0.15
that is a setting i have been waiting for, since i am using some devices as trackers.
is there a description what it does?
thanx.

“The new Repeater role makes your node no longer a first class citizen of the mesh, you will rebroadcast messages received on the same lora…”

As per here:

You can see the details for this in the config.protos. Just note, this is still very much a WIP and may change before final implementation. Currently, these options have not been added to the clients and can only be set via CLI using their role number, not their name. Examples:

Tracker

meshtastic --set device.role 5

Repeater

meshtastic --set device.role 4

thanx, i just found out i cannot set wia app or webserver :slight_smile:
