Could we review the need for these mission feasibility distance warnings? In practice they can be problematic.

Do we even need these warnings PX4 side? I think of the mission feasibility checker as the last line of defence for loading something bogus. If we also want it to return helpful warnings it needs a better interface.

Yes, we need them. Mostly because people are stupid and produce fly-aways by “fat finger planning”.

Time again for the events interface discussion.

In the meantime I would just increase the distance considerably. Most of the times people hit a completely wrong location many miles away, not something close. That is what we want to prevent.

Actually I'm only talking specifically about the warnings that are 2/3rds of the error. I don't have a problem with the feasibility checker rejecting a mission that actually exceeds the parameter value. What I don't see is the value in a mavlink critical warning when the mission is still going to be accepted.
