Request for public transport tagging check / relations not updating on Live?

[Jarek Piórkowski]

Hi all,

I recently saw that OsmAnd now supports public transit routing - that's great! Thanks to all involved in implementing this.

I tried converting one of my local tram routes to PTv2 for optimal support and I'm having some issues, namely: routing doesn't use the route, and route number doesn't show when choosing the stop. The stop is also showing with a bus icon, not a tram one.

However, the route can be seen from a nearby bus stop under "nearby routes", and I can browse through the stops in this way. Exiting out of that view, and clicking into the stop I was just seeing loses the association again. Possibly relevant: this bus stop is part of a bus route relation which was last edited on 14 April.

OSM Inspector sees no issues, it shows the routes as valid. Could someone double-check https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/9585574 and see if there are possible issues? I wanted to ask before converting any further lines...

Possible debugging data:
- I have OsmAnd+ installed from F-Droid https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.osmand.plus/
- I enabled OsmAnd Live and have nightly updates
- the route relation was upgraded to PTv2 on 13 May
- I notice that https://osmand.net/list.php shows the area as a whole being updated on 1 May

Is it perhaps that OsmAnd Live loses track of relation changes (or doesn't keep track of them by design)? I will report back in early June when the entire local index updates.

Thanks,

Brief update about this:

- route relations are only updated in OsmAnd monthly data, not in Live
- see https://github.com/osmandapp/Osmand/issues/7218
- once the monthly data has been updated, the route functions as
expected - bugs listed in my earlier message are resolved
- the version I had (v3.3 probably?) had some routing oddities
(problems exiting tram platforms, preferring transfers between routes
rather over a much shorter walk), but they seem to have been resolved
in v3.4.4 - all works beautiful now

Thanks again to everyone who contributed to making offline free data
public transit routing possible!
