    • assigned default velocities to not-numerical maxspeed values ('none':300km/h, 'walk':5km/h); was: defect 344: The TAPAS Cologne scenario does not work with the current(0.12.0) SUMO version - maxspeed not numeric
    • parsing maxspeed values given as '50 km/h'; was: defect 344: The TAPAS Cologne scenario does not work with the current(0.12.0) SUMO version - maxspeed not numeric
    • new option --osm.skip-duplicates-check added which, well, skips checks for duplicate nodes and edges
