Hi! Because the map has been updated yesterday, I regenerated the train route data. After that, I observed some routing bugs still present, so I did a deeper dive into the algorithm and greatly simplified it and made it much more robust.

After I have done this, I saw that some of the map data such as stations needed to be manually updated, so I created a generator based on Wiki data for this info as well, as the wiki is updated extremely quickly whenever changes happen.

I have also removed a behavior where if the hover popup didn't fit the screen the map would move, which was incredibly annoying and was also mentioned in #152 (comment)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added a passenger stations map layer, enabled by default, with station details available on hover.
  • Improvements
    • Map popups stay within the map, appear below markers when needed, and no longer automatically pan the map.
    • Train routes follow rail lines more accurately, with improved connections between route sections and fewer misleading straight-line gaps.
    • Station locations and map coverage have been updated.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request adds map popups that reposition within map bounds, generates and displays passenger-station data, updates station catalogs, and changes rail-route generation, runtime assembly, and route checks.

Changes

Map popup placement

Layer / File(s) Summary
Popup placement and marker integration
packages/map/components/Markers/HoverPopup.tsx, packages/map/components/Markers/*Marker.tsx, packages/map/styles/globals.css
HoverPopup disables automatic panning and adjusts placement based on map bounds and content size. Station, signal, and train markers use it while retaining their popup content and classes. CSS styles the tip for popups placed below the anchor.

Station catalog generation and display

Layer / File(s) Summary
Station data collection and catalog generation
packages/map/scripts/generate-stations.mjs, packages/map/package.json
The new script fetches and caches source data, calculates station coordinates, and generates remote, unplayable, and passenger station catalogs. Package scripts include generate:stations.
Station records and passenger overlay
packages/map/components/stations.json, packages/map/components/stationsRemote.json, packages/map/components/stationsPassenger.json, packages/map/components/PassengerStations.tsx, packages/map/components/Markers/PassengerStationMarker.tsx, packages/map/components/Map.tsx
The committed station catalogs are updated, and the map adds a passenger-stations overlay with markers.

Rail route data pipeline

Layer / File(s) Summary
Track graph and routing helpers
packages/map/scripts/rail-helpers.mjs
The helpers parse wiki routes into track ways, build a graph with connectors, find snappable nodes, route paths, and simplify geometry.
Timetable leg routing
packages/map/scripts/generate-rail-data.mjs
The generator uses wiki route ways and coordinate-backed timetable stops to build the graph, snap stations, and route legs along eligible lines.
Route joins and generated data
packages/map/scripts/generate-rail-data.mjs
The generator reroutes selected station triples and writes version 2 rail data with encoded segments, color boundaries, joins, and station coordinates.
Runtime route assembly and checking
packages/map/lib/trainRoute.ts, packages/map/scripts/check-routes.mjs, packages/map/package.json
Runtime assembly applies configured joins and groups adjacent edges by color. The checker reports jumps, hairpins, and grey segments; package scripts include check:routes.

- Line 1: Format the new file containing the `HoverPopup` component with the
repository’s configured formatter so it passes the `oxfmt` check; keep the
implementation unchanged.
- Around line 52-54: Update the offset calculation in HoverPopup so the popup
body uses fitShift without the maxTipShift clamp; apply the rounded-corner limit
separately to the tip position so the body stays inside the map.
- Around line 83-84: Update the popup placement lifecycle around
placePopupInsideMap to recalculate placement on the map’s resize, moveend, and
zoomend events while the popup is open. Remove those event listeners when the
popup closes and during cleanup, preserving the existing ResizeObserver
behavior.

station coordinate toward them.
- Line 241: Track failures from both the shape-fetch catch and the suppressed
server-failure handling during refresh, and abort before replacing either
catalog if any required request failed; do not publish incomplete station
records or classifications.

The non-dispatch stations in that layer get their own "Passenger stations"

Create the L.icon once at module scope.

Every render builds a new L.icon object. React Leaflet then calls setIcon on each marker because the prop identity changes. This file renders about 96 markers. The icon has no dependency on station. Move it to module scope.

Joins were stored as geometry only, and the client drew each one in the
colour of the leg before it, so a join crossing track that isn't in the
game was drawn green. Joins now carry their colour runs (same format as
segmentColors), which the client applies, reversed for joins drawn
backwards.
