I made a patch that visualizes the masked direction of way. This patch is made as a support patch of OTRP, but it works independently with OTRP.
The patch file is simutrans nightly r8275 based, and the patch can be easily integrated to the nightly trunk.
The patch is uploaded here. Source code can be seen on git. https://github.com/teamhimeh/simutrans/tree/ribi_arrow

The aim of this patch is visualizing direction of way as clear and simple as possible. To do this, I made tool_show_ribi, a simple tool that shows masked ribi of way. This tool puts arrows when it is called.
The arrow is a pak and the object class of the pak is misc. Its name is Ribi_Arrow. This object is required since this is a misc object. @Takamaro made a sample arrow addon and you can download it from here. Also, we have to edit menuconf.tab to use this function. Add

simple_tool[36]=,:
# colon key is assigned to this function.


This patch is so useful when we build oneway roads. We can check very easily whether direction is set correctly.



I made OTRP binary with ribi arrow patch. The binary is r8275 based. Be sure that this requires misc.RibiArrow.pak!

This is fantastic! No kidding. :D

The sample addon for pak64 was not compiled correctly, so I fixed it 8)
You can download it from the same link.

Good idea! This could also help to trouble-shoot route-finding problems to find non-connected pieces of ways.

Could you also modify this to change ribis of overhead lines? i.e., when key ':' is pressed it cycles through the different modes.

THLeaderH

Do you mean wayobj_t::dir? OK, I'll do that, but what is this parameter used for? It seems that this parameter, wayobj_t::dir, has no effect on routing.

Dwachs

yes, true. Forget about this request :)

What about a mode where general ribis on waytiles is shown, especially concerning the long time asked solution to the two unintentional endtiles making roads and rails unconnected, creating "no route" messages?

I create a code in "script" to solve this problem in the tutorial, but it is very long and does not work when there are interceptions.



I would be very happy with a simpler solution.  8)

This patch is so useful when we build oneway roads. We can check very easily whether direction is set correctly.
I'd say it's a necessity for oneway roads!

Can the illusion that Simutrans has diagonals be maintained?  i.e. Needs diagonal arrows.
The neighbouring tile checks required to do that should also make it simple to implement displaying a 'x' or something to highlight unconnected neighboring ways.

In the attached, the yellow arrow pointing the wrong way to the oneway road shouldn't be there; Depends on the order the roads are built - I guess ribis aren't always being set correctly.
