Geocoder flies to wrong location when using the naturalEarth projection

[keithdoggett]

When selecting a location with the naturalEarth projection, places selected from the geocoder will fly to the wrong location (but the pin is placed in the correct location).

This does not happen for poi types from the dropdown so I think it has something to do with the bbox property of the geocoder API response not being projected since POIs that worked don't have a bbox property in the response.

Here's a fiddle I was able to reproduce it on.

If you need any more details let me know.

This is what helped for us. We disabled built-in flyTo and handled ourselves using the center of the result from geocoder. Works with naturalEarth.

var geocoder = new MapboxGeocoder({
  accessToken: mapboxgl.accessToken,
  mapboxgl: mapboxgl,
  flyTo: false,
})

map.addControl(
  geocoder,
  'top-right'
)

geocoder.on('result', ({result}) => {
  map.flyTo({
    center: result.center,
    zoom: 12
  })
})
