Error when using avoid zones: "A time-dependent routing algorithm requires a time-dependent weighting"

openrouteservice
1

Hello, I trying to set up OpenrouteService but I’m having a error when using the feature “avoid zones”.
The error message is:

A time-dependent routing algorithm requires a time-dependent weighting

The error does only occur, if I use the URL params time and timePreference.
Without those params, the avoid zones features works as expected.

This is the ORS config I’m using

Does someone have a idea? I’m having the same error using 8.1.3 and the default config: openrouteservice/ors-config.yml at main · GIScience/openrouteservice · GitHub

This is the body of the POST request I’m testing. This is causing the error, but it works without the param departure. It seems the departure and avoid_polygons are not compatible?
