Doesn't work on Chrome for me at all. My cone rank doesn't appear. Layers don't appear. Permalink doesn't show... But other browsers are fine. This is on 18.0.1025.151.

JS console shows a couple of errors
Code: Select all
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'shortcut' of undefined
...
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method 'getCenterLonLat' of null

I've cleared cache and restarted the browser to no avail.

Drives incorrectly marked as "Today" or "Yesterday" - could this be fixed as well?

Any thought given to awarding more points for creating road segments?

Adding new segments is more work, adding geometry nodes, setting direction, setting turn restrictions, updating country/state/city/street name (if known), and sometimes changing road type, but with this update all of that effort will only be counted once.

Early on, this was part of the new editor, with adding a road being an edit, and then fully naming the road being an addition edit. I'm unsure if this is still the case.

Do we really want to promote Googlitus of mapping every parking lot lane, because that's what will happen. The reason you see it in GMaps is because that's how you game the system to advance in editing "rank" there so you don't have to wait 3-6 months for your one dependent edit to get reviewed so you can do your next one.

Am I really the only one who cannot access WME at all in Chrome/Win7? This is really odd. :?

I'd really hoped the etiles layer would be quicker to load once this came out of beta - sadly it seems not! Painfully slow!
