Is there anything to check or highlight whether a speed camera is set to a different limit from the road it’s on?
eg, this camera is set to 60mph, while the segment’s limit is 70mph.
Thanks.
I have changed this to L4 and 70mph.
I am not aware of any scripts to identify cameras set different to the road. As I do not think the 2 objects are linked in the WME I think this might be difficult.
I will ask about to see if anyone know of something.
Chris, twister, has just updated his script, URO+ to include the option to show only cameras with the speed set incorrectly.
Can I highlight that this doesn’t mean the cameras are wrong and should be updated. As always it is only highlighting something to look at. I have a section of motorway that has ASC cameras set at 50, but the perentant gantry cameras remain at 70 as they do not enforce the temporary roadworks.
Problem is, the script just highlights possible issues in passing - which means editors have to trawl the map. I was hoping for a tool which would provide a list of potential issues, perhaps similar to the WME Validator.
You might want to re-read your above post and consider what sort of a message that sends to someone who’s given over some of their precious spare time to knock up a script mod that easily fulfils the critera you laid out in your opening post.

As for a tool that’ll do what you’re now asking for. No.
The only way to build a list of all the speed cameras is to trawl the map data area by area, much as URMPT does to scan for URs etc. across a given area, and as URMPT has shown us, this isn’t a rapid process.
However, all that’ll give you is a list of cameras and the speed limits to which they’ve been set.
What you then also need to do, because the devs still haven’t cottoned onto the notion that having a speed camera explicitly associated with a segment might actually be a good idea, is to search the vicinity of the map around each camera to find the nearest segment, which you can then presume to be the one to which the camera is intended to relate to, in order to grab its speed limits for comparison against the camera limit.
This will make it an even slower process.
That’s not to say it’d be impossible to create such a tool, just that the amount of work required to build it, and the time it’d take to come up with the results, would likely make it an unattractive prospect for all concerned.
