A couple of questions out of curiosity: how does Routing Ruler handle highly permissive rules where EF itself already returns a lot of edge-case routings? And do you plan to add any filtering or weighting logic (e.g. practical vs theoretical routings)?
Also good to see KVS compatibility — that should make it more useful for people who already rely on it in their workflow.
Thanks! I appreciate it. I'm not sure what you mean with EF returning edge-case routings? EF generally returns all routing rules. Routing Ruler generates all "legal" combinations (currently capped at 3,000 per rule). I don't have any weighting planned for now. You can sort routings by distance and you can filter by transfer/stopover airports and countries.
