Theme Park Wait Time Aggregator Overlay

WHAT IT DOES

This userscript helps theme park visitors optimize their day by aggregating and displaying ride wait times from any wait time page, park app, or third-party tracking site. It scans the page for ride names and wait times, then displays a color-coded list in the panel showing all rides, their current wait times, and the park average. It highlights the shortest and longest waits, shows the average wait time across all rides, and color-codes each ride: green for 0–15 min (walk-on/short), blue for 16–30 min, yellow for 31–45 min, orange for 46–60 min, and red for 60+ min. The script identifies the best-value ride (shortest wait) and provides a quick overview of park conditions.

WHERE IT RUNS

The script works on theme park wait time pages—official park apps and websites, third-party tracking sites like Thrill-Data, Queue-Times, and similar platforms. It runs entirely within your browser, reading only the visible content of the current page. It does not track your browsing history, access other tabs, or send any data externally. All calculations are performed locally.

HOW TO USE

After installation, open the panel by clicking the tool's icon in the BotGentz sidebar. The script auto-scans wait time pages on load (toggle this on/off). Choose your display mode—"Badge only" shows a floating badge in the corner with the average wait and shortest ride, "Panel only" shows the full list in the panel, or "Both" shows both. Click "Scan wait times" to manually analyze the page. The badge displays the average wait time and the shortest wait ride. The panel shows a complete list of rides with color-coded wait times, park average, and shortest/longest stats. Use "Clear display" to remove all overlays.

THE TECHNICAL MECHANISM

This script uses pattern matching and DOM traversal to extract ride names and wait times from wait time pages. It scans for ride elements using common selectors like .ride, .attraction, .wait-time, [class*="ride"], [class*="attraction"], and [class*="wait"]. For each element, it extracts text and uses regex patterns to identify wait times: "45 min", "1 hr 30 min", "30 minutes", "walk on", "closed", or numeric values. Rides are categorized as Closed (gray), Walk On (green), or numeric wait times with color coding. The script calculates the park average (excluding closed rides), finds the shortest and longest waits, and sorts rides by wait time. The color-coded display helps users quickly identify which rides are worth visiting based on wait times.

THE PANEL

The panel is draggable anywhere on the screen and remembers its position between sessions. It can be collapsed to a small floating bubble to minimize distraction, and expanded again with a single click. The panel's width can be adjusted, and pressing the Escape key closes it instantly. All settings—display mode and auto-scan—are persisted locally using GM_setValue, so your preferences remain intact across page reloads and browser restarts.

PLEASE NOTE

This userscript requires the free BotGentz extension to function. The script is designed for theme park wait time pages; it may work on other tracking sites but is not guaranteed. The extraction relies on the current text patterns on each site—if a site updates its UI or wording, the script may need to be updated. Wait times are extracted from the page text and may not reflect real-time conditions if the page is not updated frequently. The color coding is a general guide; individual ride preferences may vary. The script does not access your account or API; it only reads what is visible on the page. No data from your browsing is stored or transmitted anywhere—all processing occurs entirely in your browser.
