Based on my experience, if you are due multiple editor bonuses, and you miss one, you will not have any more show up on your way until you restart Waze. That first one remains waiting for you and subsequent ones appear only after the first one is eaten, and so on.

You don't lose them forever if you don't pick them up as the database tracks bonuses owed (to be eaten) and marks them eaten only when you drive over them, so they come back next time.

Yeah that is my experience too, I normally just shrug it off and wait until next time! Happens a lot actually as I often don't drive with a route plugged in for short journeys and the candy will show up straight over a junction as I turn left or right! :roll:

If you really want a missed candy for some reason (like it's the end of the week and you're trying to make top wazer in your state) just exit and restart Waze and it will reappear.

I'll have to remember that when I need a boost to get past mapcat! He is tough one to beat in Ohio unless he lets me like a week or so ago!

Although I suspect that the points are added to your total regardless of digesting the candy or not.

I think, changed the color was to prepare a 3.0 design change.

Was it the only change in colour? I've just upgraded my phone and everything seems brighter (on map editors theme). Maybe it's just the phone?

I was asked, Dror, and I got this reply to:
We are changing our candies design a little bit... you'll notice that the candy now also has the number of points on the candy itself... all towards the new iPhone version which will be released soon.
