[Script] WME Bad Junction Angle Info

Post by g1220k
 WME Bad Junction Angle Info
Shows "Bad Angle Infos" of all Junctions in the editing area

Version: 1.9.6 - 2022.11.24

Greasy Fork Download Link: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/43456 ... angle-info

Description: 
This userscript shows “Bad Angles” of all junctions in the editing area.
Bad angles are junction angles that can cause routing problems.

This script uses parts of the logic of the great “WME Junction Angle Info” script, thanks to the authors.
It cannot and does not want to replace “WME Junction Angle Info”, but it helps to find problems because it shows them in the WME window without having to select segments.

I find the script very helpful, but ... I don't know if this bug is unique to me. See video. And that only happens when I activate your script.

The intersection with the railroad segment is not pulled along properly.

So it would actually be correct:

There are also incorrect exits at roundabouts, which are generated by the WME (rarely), but cannot be seen with JAI alone.
Bad Jai fixes this problem as well.

 
 I was just about to say the same thing  :lol:
 
I am seeing quite a few RAs highlighted and have been wondering what the cause would be.

Hey,

after the last hotfix for productive WME Bad JAI shows yellow angle while there is/are TIO.

Is there a possibility to not show the error, if a TTS is forced on the node of the segments with the "45º"!? See this example. Because I'm overriding the instruction, there will no longer be a problem!

Also, a situation like this one shouldn't be marked with error, because there is no possibility to make a route between them (from one segment to the other and vice-versa).

Thank you once again for this script.
 
 
 

 
Thanks for the examples, I will try to take these situations into account.

Thank you for the numerous responses.
Since there have been various questions about the script and about bad and good angles in the last few days, I want to briefly explain my level of knowledge and the creation of the script.

I learned the following from my mentors:
A bad angle can cause the following problems:
  • Unclear turning instructions
  • Suboptimal routes
To solve this problem we change the angle by adding an additional node( or moving existing nodes).

In order to find the bad angles faster and easier, I developed the script "WME Bad Junction Angle Info".
Since we always fix bad angles by adjusting the angle, the script didn't have to take any TIOs or restrictions into account.

Now I have learned that work is done differently in other countries and that there are additional requirements for the script.
I'm already working on the new version, which will also check and take into account TIOs and restrictions.

The new version will be available in the next few days.
