Hi Lupo,
I don’t know if you created the bend in this segment?
But the way it is right now, you won t get any instruction to take a left. It looks like the segment was straight before, but somebody shaped it, bending to the left, to follow the satelite image. That’s not desirable, cause it ruins instructions. Best is to keep this short segment straight and a nice “turn left” will be triggered.
Please adjust after you’ve read this, i left it untouched so you can learn
Oh, and in addition, please adjust/delete these segments. They are not connected to the primary, AND this is not how we want to map. Please connect the roads with a single straight segment, instead of Y-shaped 1way connections. Those are useless.
very likely. Didn’t know that this causes problems, made it straight.
thank you for telling me. I’m trying to be helpful, but still a beginner… It’s hard for me to paint roads, that are not congruent with the satellite picture. Obviously this is my OCD coming in
Anyways, I’m very grateful for every hint to improve my contributions to the amazing WAZE project!
It takes a change in mind, going from copying the satellite image, into making a navigable map.
And i’m happy to help you, getting there
as far as the bend, if you have a transient connection, you won’t get any instruction. So you have to try to keep corners 90 degr. for a Turn left. And ~45 degree for a keep left instruction.
One segment further to the southeast probably. You can see that there is a newly created segment by Lupo. The old one was probably deleted, as mentioned by Lupo in the first post here.
Good for you, because you get a lot of points “munching” a road as a Pacman. But not the way we want it, since average speeds are stored per segment, so deleting is not the preferred option.
Bending is not the issue. It’s about the angle of the connection to the next segment.
When you made it straight, the connections was still ~50 degrees. Which might not give you an instruction.
I’ve manipulated the segment now, with a small geometry node. That way, the segment is a bit according the satellite, but the conenction is still 90 degrees. Have a look and zoom in, you see what i mean.
But a straight segment, without a bend or angle, would do the job as well. It’s the same result.
