Confusing markings on way lit overlay #5571
Comments
I agree... Looking at: StreetComplete/app/src/main/java/de/westnordost/streetcomplete/osm/lit/LitStatus.kt Lines 28 to 31 in 3633fe5
it seems that current behaviour is that While I get what why it was done (prevent damaging existing data), I find such magical behaviour totally unexpected. (and also, I would prefer (better options at top) that either:

that would not remove confusion as they would be described exactly like |
I agree that showing |

No. During day, |
Hm, to summarize, there is no good solution to this. In my opinion, the root issue is that StreetComplete somewhat leans to only supporting the tagging of physical presence, because this is the tagging that is actually surveyable on-site with reasonable effort. For the "lit-times" tagging, one has to theoretically be on-site at various hours during the night to even just determine whether it is lit for the whole night. At the same time, we take care not to destroy the data captured with the "lit-times"-tagging, which is why we support the more popular tags like
(As you see) I ran this again through my brain, but I am still at a loss of a good solution.

In the end, I chose a similar solution as for the building overlay. Unsupported values are displayed specifically as such. Using a different color, and when tapping on it, the selected entry is titled Specific lit status that is not selectable in this app. |
I would expect it to cover is it actually lit.
As someone who invented this term: no. Troll tag would something like (in either case #5571 (comment) works well) |
Use case
Way lit overlay marks lit=disused, lit=limited with the same color as lit=yes
Proposed Solution
I suggest adding separate colors or ways of labeling for the other values, as the current one is confusing, in particular ways with unused lighting are displayed the same as those with working lighting.
