If the PT_Assistant routing_helper has to help you 'reassemble' the ways on a turn-by-turn basis, it is indeed relatively slow. If however there are already other routes that contain the way you start from and the way after the gap, then it will propose this whole sequence of ways that's present

Hi Jo, I installed and played around with pt_assistant yesterday, and yes you are right it seems a lot more than just an validator. For example, if I reverse a relation it lets me find and replace the ways which are one way and in the wrong direction. However, I find the bright colours and

Hi, I'm not sure why you think PT_Assistant is simply a validator. It has many features to help you create bus routes and recently I added some features to help with conversion from PTv1 to PTv2. Those are not in the released version yet though, because I'm also adding some other features

Thanks. I didn't find the source code for this plugin after searching for it online. I don't think I have the programming expertise to actually contribute to this progeamming. The most I can do in Java is writing some programs that run in the console.  That was why I was suggesting this to

Great! This should hopefully simplify the improvement of this addon. 1. What inherant flaws did the sudtem have? 2. How easy is it to determine if a way is "forward" or "backward" automatically? Also, it seems that the relation editor can sort ways, so a rewrite of this addon can remove this

Hi all, thank you for the feedback. Furthermore, this plugin is closed-source (as far as I know), so it cannot be "fixed". The plugin is open source, see https://github.com/openstreetmap/josm-plugins/tree/master/public_transport The problem is that maintaining the plugin is a lot of work.

Currently, mapping public transport routes is extremely tedious.  Firstly, you have to select all the ways in order, and add them to the relation. This is usually not that difficult, however if it is a long distance route then downloading data becomes a problem. (The best solution to this I can
