Hi Tim,

Sorry for my late response.
I've tried it, but it does not seem to work. All I get is "Fetching route" with the rolling squares animation.

Good afternoon.

Don't know if this was already mentioned, but I've been experiencing wrong instructions on roundabouts with this script. 

Please see the following examples:
  1. roundabout 1 - if I select this segment as the entrance on roundabout, then I get wrong exit numbers on all exits, but if I select this then the exit numbers are okay
  2. roundabout 2 - same problem if I select this as the entrance (wrong exit numbers on all exits), but if I select this, then instructions are okay
  3. roundabout 3 - same problem with this and this segments ... but if I select other segment as start point then instructions are okay ...
  4. roundabout 4 - same problem with this
  5. roundabout 5 - this is completely messed up  :shock:
In conclusion, the problem seems to be only when I select as start point segments connected to the roundabout. If I check the same route, but with a different start point (segment not connected to roundabout), then it seems to be working okay!!!

Best regards

Many of your examples are long straight segments with a slight curve onto the roundabout. As a result the coordinates are too close to the roundabout, and Waze thinks the route starts on the roundabout, hence the incorrect exit count.  So, it's best to select a segment that is further away from the roundabout to get the correct instructions.

Your last example, there's a footpath near the middle of the starting segment, so Waze is trying to find a route from that point.

WME Route Speeds script shows you the exact start/end coordinates, and lets you move them.

 
Thank you for your feedback. It helped to understand those "weird" instructions  :)

Hello

Allow me to report another (strange) situation to which I do not have explanation ... but probably you may have (like the one above  :) ;)): do not know if is due to the fact that the destination is on a segment with lanes but if I select these segments then the suggested route is strange, but if I select destination on other segment without lanes, then the suggested route is okay. 

Do not know if it is a bug ... or something wrong with map editions!

Best regards

For the past couple of days I've been having issues, often it just sits trying to retrieve the route. Before that it was working fine. Is there a known problem?

Thanks

I also see that problem. Tim, could you change it to Control-R? I don't think that's assigned. Or offer us an option to choose the hotkey and/or toggle hotkey latch?
Ctl-r triggers a page reload in Chrome and FF so that's not a good one to use.

Does your script really needs to have access to all URLs / history?

Since it appears that UserScripts.org probably won't be returning to a usable state anytime soon are there any plans on moving the script over to greasyfork.org or some other site?
