Rick,

I figured out how to reproduce this error. If you actually disable URO+, your async script calls enter a RACE condition sometimes, especially if you are in an area with high UR density (500+) and/or if you have a lot of scrolls or movements in close succession.

Somehow, the URO+ backfill setting seems to keep this from happening at some point. Probably due to the fact that some event is fired after the URs are backfilled.

What i am seeing happening is that sometimes time on page load WME is not loading all the information used by a few scripts. when this happens i noticed that WME does not have any UR data loaded and for hardhats the user rank is not loaded. causing script errors or unexpected behavior.

i disabled all waze scripts and extensions and every few reloads i still have the issue where UR pins are not showing up until i either reload the page, use the reload button, or move the map.

I could not recreate this at all, i tried both filters and pills. i even went so far as to leave my computer sit for an hour to see if the data was loading slowly.

for people who are not seeing UR pins on the map on page load i wrote a script to try to detect this situation and that will move the map an unnoticable amount. on my computer this forces all the WME data to load. this also might help with some of the other script problems other people are having. i don't have any details as to which other scripts other then there is script issues...
when the script detects this situation you will get a toolbox type message that says "WME-Force-Data: Waze's data is missing attempting a map move to force data into loading.'"
This has not had any testing so let me know if it helps or causes other issues.

the script can be found at,
https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/14746-wme-force-data

hopefully waze will fix the issue and we wont need the script.

Can you please add [WSLM] as a tag in your code? There seems to be a lot of them in my area, and it would be nice to be able to see/filter them at a glance without having to open each one. Thanks!

I already have most if the URs translated into Spanish, I will see if there are new UR messages later.

Rick,
Is it your script or another script that made the UR interface window larger (top to bottom of the WME)? With the recent WME updates, that feature is now broken for me. I'm trying to track down, what I need to fix... :)

I removed the code that made the UR full screen height, the huge amount of white space on new URs was not well received.
Thank you for the explanation and everything that you have done for managing URs. I don't understand how people could like the smaller window and having to endlessly scroll to read the comments. I know nothing about writing scripts, therefore I have no idea how hard it is... But any chance the window could dynamically grow based on comment lines or could the larger window be an optional item with toggle/switch on the Settings tab? Thanks in Advance!

for about 4-5 hours i was trying different things, it's not as much fun when you don't have progress to show! I also for that on top of all that firefox also reports different numbers
Drat!!! :? Maybe you can just pick three sizes: small, medium, and large. That would be more awesome than what it is now... Would something like that be doable? :D

The latest update broke URComments filtering entirely for me.

I'm having that issue as well. I also can't seem to find the combination of settings that will allow me to use URComments filtering while still retaining the special icons for note URs from URO+.
