(posintg for the 2nd time after the forum loged me out and discarding everything...)
your first case is possible. I cant say for sure because I wasnt there at the same time using the same actions, but I can imagine the following situation: you are at a XL deposit, and you prospect some choice mats (xl is weathered). after that you use tracking again, but at this time the weather has changed, the choice isnt available, but there is another deposit with choice mats in 71m.
the second one is tricky, and its something most ppl find difficult to undestand. beeing at the deposit doesnt mean you are right above the location the mat will pop. this location can be a tiny spot or a bigger one, but its fixed, and once you find out it wont move. it is as you said in another post (iirc), a 'checkboard'. the deposit would be the entire checkboard area, but the mat will only pop at certain squares. tracking leads you to the checkboard area.
using 100m propection and 360degree radius is the worst thing you can do. you have to narrow down the area, not make it bigger.
and no, I havent confirmed everywhere. I confirmed looking at the code and experimenting in many areas. I like challenges, like I think you do, so, if you find some weird thing going on call me and we can look into it :)
cheers
