Bus drives on wrong side of road
The route segments exist in the screenshot below as part of route #18820739
The original order (when relatify is invoked) of bus stops is correct.
The animation of the route shows the loop being performed in a counter-clockwise direction.
- This is contrary to the original order of the bus stops in the relation.
- For countries that drive on the left hand side of the road, the correct sequence would be to perform the loop in a clockwise direction (and as specified in the original sequence of bus stops).
Here's another couple of route variants that follow the same loop in Woodcote, South Oxfordshire, GB.

The loop should go counterclockwise because the stops are on the left, on the inside of the triangle. Instead, if I load the relation into https://relatify.monicz.dev/ and zoom to the right spot[1], I see an animation in the direction of the arrows below. Note the incorrect clockwise direction for steps 2 to 4.
It seems Relatify has instantly "corrected" the loop to run counterclockwise instead of the clockwise order it was given. Since the rest of the relation is OK, it shows the Finish editing button, which is now a single-click "break this relation" button if you're careless and don't check for loops.
I know it's a known bug, I know fixing it for countries that drive on the left is planned. But is there any chance we could get a simple fix for this in quickly? A URL parameter like, ?relation=...&load=1 could work. Alternatively a checkbox for "drive on left", pre-populated with URL query parameters, like ?relation does it, could work. I desperately want to hand out Relatify URLs to fellow mappers in my area, but right now I feel I can't do that safely.
("wrong side" means the loop is going the wrong way for the (correctly chosen) stops)
[1] as a side issue, it would be nice to pass map= as a parameter to relatify. Perhaps even give us a permalink button to share the current view?
