[Script] Livemap Navigation Browser Addon [Deprecated]

[jasonh300]

Save the script to your desktop. Then open Settings / Extensions. There's a checkbox in there for Developer Mode or something like that. Once you have that enabled, un-maximize the chrome window and drag the script file into the extensions window.

Seems to be working correctly, although I haven't had many opportunities to use it recently.

Looks like it was working now Tim. Thanks for the update.

I too would be interested in the extra toll tag if it becomes relevant. BTW, not sure if this has been asked or answered but does the query return travel times for segments? I was thinking this might be helpful to figure out why some routes get routed certain ways.

[HavanaDay]

I see the same today. A few directions, lots of "none" rows, and a few more directions.

EDIT: The "none" entries correspond to mileage markers every .1 miles. They've definitely made changes to the response of the RoutingRequest as these "NONE" markers have not existed until very recently. The returned JSON text is significantly longer now, and full of those NONE entries.

Doing a little research with the edit map and the "NONE" markers. What it looks like to me is every junction that has no effect on the directions gets a "NONE" marker. Do you agree with that assessment?

[HavanaDay]

Is this broken for anyone else today? Tried to do directions from Charlotte, NC to Upper Marlboro, MD and the direction list seems to be working just getting a lot of the text "none" listed for non existant turns.

Never seen that before.

New version working great. Small side note, as of this writing, "Installed 8,888 times"

I've made an addon script for Firefox* and Chrome that displays the navigation list for a route in the Livemap.
[...]

Thx a lot for this script.

I've seen a route, which made a U-turn on a roundabout... This addon's turn instruction for the corresponding route's part was a plain "roundabout u" without a corresponding icon.

Could the instruction be fixed/tweaked/enhanced?

Like this? Waze Livemap Navigation Script [Beta]

Thanks

This was a very fast fix, thanks as well

I've seen a route, which made a U-turn on a roundabout, using this icon in an UR:

This addon's turn instruction for the corresponding route's part was a plain "roundabout u" without a corresponding icon.

Could the instruction be fixed/tweaked/enhanced? Something like

Code: Select all

              case "ROUNDABOUT_ENTER":
              case "ROUNDABOUT_EXIT":           dirImage = "big_directions_roundabout"; break;
+             case "ROUNDABOUT_U":              dirImage = "big_directions_roundabout_u"; break;
              default: dirImage = '';
----
            opcode = opcode.replace(/ROUNDABOUT_(ENTER|EXIT)/, 'at the roundabout, take ');
+           opcode = opcode.replace(/ROUNDABOUT_U/, 'at the roundabout, make a U-turn');
            opcode = opcode.toLowerCase().replace(/_/, ' ');

• Shows links in popup for next and previous instructions

I think that a "next »" link is not necessarily displayed also in the "arrive at destination" bubble.

I've finally convinced myself to patch this (around line 333), possibly Tim will think out something more elegant:

Code: Select all

    // add link to next instruction
    var nextLink = '';
    if (popupIndex > 1)
      nextLink += ' <a href="#" onclick="return jumpNext(' + (popupIndex-1) + ');">&laquo; back</a>'
>   instruction = document.getElementById('_jumpTo' + (popupIndex+1));
>   if (instruction)
      nextLink   += ' <a href="#" onclick="return jumpNext(' + (popupIndex+1) + ');">next &raquo;</a>'

    var lonlat = new OpenLayers.LonLat(lon = lon, lat = lat);
