I have a mini 3 pro that basic map let it halted on about 50% of the way through the run. The app did not crash... it's simply stopped it's run. When I told it to start again... the drone took off in the opposite direction of the starting point so I manually stopped it and brought the drone home as I was unsure to what it was going to do in and I didn't wanna take any chances.

Perhaps you should have let it fly off in the opposite direction as is did not need to go to the starting point. it should have resumed the mission form where it left off.

I am using beta 248 and did a 14 min x 190 photos map yesterday with RC-N1 and Pixel 7Pro. The app crashed at about the 90% mark. So I relaunched the app, opened the plan and I iirc I pressed start. I then waited hesitantly to see if it would attempt to do the whole flight again or pickup form where it left off. Fortunately if did the latter and just flew the missing 10%. Did not even miss an image as far as a I can tell.

Depending on when the app crashes, it may redo some of the mission that already executed as it only saves progress every 5 seconds or so. Having said that, the app will render a purple line to the resume point so you know where it thinks it needs to start.
