[Script Idea] - Choose two way street as default

Post by
Hi there,

I am really looking for a feature that when I create a new street I do not have to change always from one way to two way streets.

A default setting for two way street (or anything else in the drop down menu) would make editing so much easier and faster ;-)

What do you think about it?

I thought they would have made the change right away, but said they needed to discuss with Ehud first.

Didn't see this in the bug list, so go here to vote: https://bugs.waze.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5467

Waze answered for the bug report in terms of what WME will eventually do natively. However, it doesn't appear anyone has written any kind of script.

So someone could easily drop this into a plugin to load at startup. This works fine, but, as expected, it reverts whenever a permalink is loaded.

Keep in mind that I believe this will cause roundabouts to also be set as 2-way by default because that segment drawing is done using the same code and relies on the prototype setting. Perhaps someone could verify this.

1. Userscript: (removed)
2. Or you can just drop the line into your favorite script:

Code: Select all

Waze.Feature.Vector.Segment.prototype
	.DEFAULT_NEW_SEGMENT_ATTRIBUTES.revDirection = true

I'll include the option into the next WME Validator release.
