It's not just that here in Ireland we have a lot of areas which have fairly dense tree cover which absolutely destroys GPS on some low end phones, there are some areas of parks here where we just can't venture into as a group because someone will have issues and have to just wait out that part of the trip, I tend to go hunting Mon in a group of 4 so tech issues take up more than half the time we are actually going around together doing it. But yeah what I mean is... if an area was buggy before to enter but you could stay 100m away and still trigger the Gym/Pokemon in it... that was great, but now you'll have whole areas cut off from "play"

On top of the obvious fact that this new radius will mean lots more crossing of roads to get to gyms / pokemon than before since the radius will no longer reach places at the other side of the street so they have just made the game more dangerous to play.... stupid.

I've noticed a few glitches with the gyms even before this update too. Most notably, if your character decides to go running off on the map while in a gym battle, it will kick you out. That gym is then inaccessible until you battle in another gym (yes, not even restarting the game/tablet will fix this. It has to be reset in another gym).

Not sure if that got fixed in this version.

To be honest when it comes to Gyms... there is more bugs related to them than there is actually functional features, it's a bit of a shame too considering they are the means to get the in game currency without flexing our credit cards... perhaps that is why they are in such a broken state?
