Routes Saved with OSM Background Do Not Open Correctly

I like OSM as the background for my routes and have several saved like this. That used to work fine, but now when I try to open these routes (either from Menu>Routes, or from a saved URL), I see a map of the world with no routes plotted. Changing to satellite background gets me to a point on my chosen route, but I have to zoom out to see the whole route. I can then re-select OSM as the background and all is fine. If I save a route with "Map" as the background, it saves and opens OK. This happens the same using Chrome, Firefox, or Edge as my browser.

As some have noted, there have been some changes lately, and this was a bug that got introduced along the way. I've just pushed a fix, please try again and confirm that this is fixed for you. Thanks for using the site!

Hi Paul, I'm delighted to say that routes saved with OSM background now open Fine for me. Tested with Chrome, Firefox and Edge browsers. Thanks for the very speedy resolution... ...and thanks for a great site. I find it very useful, both for personal motivation and training and also for my voluntary work with a local charity.
