[mkgmap-dev] mkgmap:set_unconnected_type differentiate between connected on both sides or on one side only

Tue Sep 19 08:29:09 BST 2017

oh yeah - I remember.

The problem ist neither the old nor the current behaviour works correctly
in comparison to other tags.
I complained that it applies to all occurences - even though using continue
(i only used a line like highway=abc {set mkgmap:set_unconnected_type=none}
[0x?? road_class=? road_speed=? continue] )

I really think the best solution if strict sticking to rules without []
block, and respecting continue vs continue with_actions is not possible
would be to have to different special tags - one removing also all non
routable overlay lines, while the other tag does not.
Back then I only used mkgmap_set_unconnected_type=none to remove
unconnected roads that make autorouting go crazy (it's unconnected -
someone starts a route there - and the route just breaks - mainly because
people did not connect the road correctly - and it has nearly invisible
gaps on both side - which Potlach v1 was a bit famous for) - now the use
case is more to filter out clutter for the semi_connected so I rather want
to have it also filter out all overlays. (I'm fine using continue
with_actions as supposed).
