Re: [openrailwaymap] Station importance

But as far as I understand the question, the problem is a render problem in cases of collision. This happens with a small number of stations per case. So, we don't need absolute importance of stations here, but a relative ranking of these few stations. And I suppose, in most of these cases, a non-perfect method like the 2 I proposed, could work.

The problem is that the renderer would need to do a lot of calculations for this, which usually is something you want to avoid as that process takes a lot of time anyway. Walking relations up and down is IMHO one of the last things you want to do there if you can avoid it.
