If this one-way Ramp has a turn enabled to another one-way Ramp. Here is an example: permalink

Sorry, maybe the condition is not sufficient for US, so please let me know if I shall disable the check for US or add more ifs.

03.02.2014 v0.5.10:
- HOTFIX: DISABLED for (almost) ALL: 'Unneeded name on one-way Ramp'

Sorry, from now on I will announce upcoming checks. For instance, here are the checks ready to release in 0.6.0:
- NEW for ALL 'SLOW: No connection at node A/B': a dead-end node is 5m from another segment
- NEW for ALL 'Too short segment' (less than 2m long)

Right, for the left-hand traffic, direction could be either A-B or B-A, but for right-hand traffic it's always A-B. So Validator takes this shortcut and does not compare adjacent roundabout segments for right-hand traffic.
You might need to update Validator, since it was disabled few days ago:
22.01.2014 v0.5.2:
- UPD 'Same endpoints drivable segments': roundabouts are temporarily excluded

It reports Walking Trails with level -5.

04.02.2014 v0.6.0:
- NEW search tab: search for your edits, recently modified segments or specific city name
(see the details below)
- NEW for ALL 'SLOW: No connection at node A/B':
a dead-end node is within 5m from another segment
- NEW for ALL 'Too short segment'
(drivable non-dead-end less than 2m long segment)
- NEW for AT, CH, DE 'Incorrect Freeway elevation'
- NEW for ALL right-hand traffic countries
'Unusual B-A drivable roundabout direction'
- UPD 'Construction zone': TRAVAUX for France, GF, NC, RE
- UPD roundabout checks only for drivable segments now
- ENABLED for AT, CH, DE 'Two-way Freeway segment'
'Incorrect Freeway lock level'
- DISABLED for (almost) ALL
'Walking Trail instead of a Railroad'
'Unneeded name on one-way Ramp'

New search tab:
Updated since - report/highlight segments, updated since a specific date
City name - this field supports lists (city1, city2), wildcards (*) and negation (!)
Examples:
Greater * Area
!Paris, * - will match any city but Paris
r*, s* - will match any city starting with letter r or s

Plans
I'd like to stabilize Validator, so no new features for some time. I will still enable/disable checks on your request, accept translations, exceptions etc.

Please report bugs, false positives (with permalinks), typos etc.

Thanks!

Please note the 'Walking Trail instead of a Railroad' at the moment is enabled for the Poland only.
Let me know if the check should be enabled for other countries.

UPD: 'Railroad used for comments' enabled for all countries.

05.02.2014 v0.6.1:
- NEW search option to include/exclude certain checks:
Reported as (see below for the details)
- ENABLED for CZ 'Walking Trail instead of a Railroad'
- fixed few bugs with new and deleted segments

New search tab:
Updated since - highlight/report segments which were modified since a specific date only.

City name - this field supports lists (city1, city2), wildcards (*) and negation (!)
Examples:
Greater * Area
!Paris, * - will match any city but Paris
r*, s* - will match any city starting with letter r or s

New! Reported as - filter for reported issues. This field supports lists, wildcards and negation and matches severities, check titles and check IDs.
Examples:
error - to highlight/report just errors
New road - to highlight/report just segments reported as "New roads"
!40, * - do not highlight/report check #40 (Soft turns on drivable road)
!soft turns*, * - do not highlight/report checks starting with 'soft turns'
36, 37 - to highlight/report just checks #36 and #37 (unneeded node A/B)
*roundabout* - to highlight/report checks with "roundabout" in the title

Plans
I'd like to make Validator more stable, so no new features for some time. But I will still enable/disable checks on your request, accept translations, exceptions etc.

Please report bugs, false positives (with permalinks), typos etc.

Thanks!

Sure, but different countries have different guidelines. Sorry, I have no clue where you are from :?

At the moment I'd like to see bug reports more than ever :mrgreen:

- WME Color Highlight 1.8
- WME House Number Helper 0.4.5
- WME route checker 1.0
- WME Hide Landmarks 1.0

Could you find a way to fix this?
Sure, no problem.

I guess those first 3 scripts have the common issue: they all have fixed WME startup time encoded (setTimeout), which is not always enough as you can see.

Yours Hide Landmarks have another issue, please check the PM.

I still receive this warning for segments with very distinct path
It was enabled back in 0.5.8. At the moment this check does not report roundabouts.

Done. Will be available in the next release.

Further plans
Guys, let me know if you are interested in the following features:

1. User interface internationalization - i.e. translation of buttons, checkboxes, tips etc. on your language. Would it be useful or English is OK?

2. Separating translations from the main script. The main script will be slimmer and faster, while you will be able maintain translations on your own. I suggest to extract the following features:
a) UI translations (optional, see 1)
b) translation of check titles, problem descriptions, howtos and links localization
c) enabling/disabling checks for the country
d) managing exceptions and check parameters

Let me know what you guys think before I start to implement the functionality.
I would also like to hear if the script startup time in v0.6.2 is still an issue for you.

Thanks!
