WME Reload Map Position Fix

Version: 2021.09.01.01

Greasyfork: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/411069-wme-reload-map-position-fix

Description: Threw together a quick script to keep track of the map position (center coordinates) and zoom level, then restore this position and zoom on reload of the WME page. This works in multiple sessions (tabs / windows) and through closing / opening browser. The last page to close upon “closing” a browser will be the restored location. Once the bug is fixed in WME, this script will be obsolete.

Developers: dBsooner through WazeDev

Changelog:

2021.09.01.01: Update to latest WME zoom level changes. 2020.09.09.01: NEW: Added check for URL parameters. 2020.09.08.01: CHANGE: Initial release.

Thanks for quick solution.

I still need to add a check for Lon lat and zoom in the URL. So URLs with those in it won’t work. I’ll add that in the morning.

Per here, the issue has been fixed in WME.

Yep. It was fixed very shortly after I released 2nd version. But I don’t mind. :slight_smile: This script won’t compete with it. Good to have it as a backup for future as well.

Noticed when I have to reload that WME has been doing it’s old trick of moving me back to a zoom level of 17 and in a slightly different spot from where I was. This annoys me. So I revived this script and updated it to at least move me back. If anyone else is annoyed, use this.

Thank ya!

Thanks for this script, DB. Solves that annoying zoom issue on reload. Great job.

Heyyy,
Hmmm, having "version 2021.09.01.01" and it seems that it does not work anymore. (F5/Reload throws me to to very starting point, where I opened the window initially.)

Am I the only one?
Any thoughts?

Thanks!

This script was written as a result of a problem with the version of wme at the time, it didn’t remember the final location. Currently that issue has been resolved and this script does not work unless it returns that error. :geek:

Hello, I took a liberty and created the new version of the script. (Position survives the refresh/reload + address bar URL gets updated as you move + it’s somewhat modernized for current SDK.) … if you are interested.
