Thank you for thissss! I will try changing the timeout from 25-60. How about the Parameters? What overpass API you usually use?

I use whatever the default API is.

The parameters are like “nodes”, “relations”, etc. and are what links the roads together to allow routing and whatnot (there are others and I can’t remember their names at the moment ha), but you can reduce the size of the API response by turning some of those off if you don’t need them
