Module not loading bc wrong destination

[noaboa97]

Hi,

So I don't know how to figure out the correct origin or destination sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't with the name I look up in Google Maps.

This doesn't work. I guess because of the ü.
origin: 'St. Johanns-Tor',
destination: 'Barfüsserplatz',

So I had to choos a diffrent station and it worked.
origin: 'St. Johanns-Tor',
destination: 'Bankverein',

Same as the first nothing special from my point of view. But it doesn't work and the module is displaying loading connections or on german Lade Verbindungen.
origin: 'St. Johanns-Tor',
destination: 'St-Louis Grenze',

I also tried different variations like

St. Louis Grenze or
St-Louis Grenze, Basel

or for the ones above with ü I tried with ue.

For me it's strange and doesn't make sense.

So what's the problem? Is this Issue known?
Can somebody help me?

So It's not really solved but it works with St-Louis Grenze. I left it over night on and in the morning it has loaded the tram departure times. The only porblem is: it will also show one departure time wich is in the past. so it says "4mins ago" and eventually it will go away but still not so nice if it's there until the next departures times comes. So almost always the first entry will say "mins ago". And the other problem when I restart it takes forever to load the departure times (more than an hour).

Hi, I know this has been some time, but just to pick this up.
Last time I had my MM running, I also had a lot of "loading..." messages. I haven't debugged that yet but I assumed it was because I connected the destination to my calendar and my calendar wouldn't load...

Anyways, Umlaute are acceptable in location names. The best way to check this is by entering the same departure and arrival into Google Maps and see what it says. We had other people who struggled with public transport in certain areas because Google Maps didn't work properly there. In that case using one of the other public transport modules can solve the problem.

Regarding the "4min ago" - The default refresh rate is 5min. This is to limit the total number of API requests. The refresh rate of the time is 15sec in order to keep the displayed time always accurate. You can change this in the options to send API requests every 30sec or so if you prefer that. I found that it slows down the MM on my RPi 2.
