Order Crawler Recorder

The order crawler recorder is a new recorder to show all the nodes and links in a network and what their orders and requirements are on a particular date.  Available under: Miscellaneous \ Ordering \ Order Crawler. The Order Crawler is a fully interactive zoomable schematic that shows:

...

Note: for large networks, it does record a lot of data and is primarily for problem-solving and not intended to always be turned on.

...

Date Range changes

We previously have no way of adjusting the ownership mass balance on storage nodes post timestep. Often there are decisions that move ownership about as a result of management/policy decisions based on what happened that day.  We now have an option to adjust the End of day volumes in Storages and Weirs.

...

have improved Date Ranges and fixed up some issues with their implementation. This will change results for a number of users, so we have implemented a Scenario Option to turn on the new Date Ranges algorithm. 

Existing projects won't be using the new method and will have to manually swap over. This gives users a chance to test the new implementation before it becomes the only option.

Image Added

In a later Beta release, we will implement a utility to convert across while keeping results consistent as much as possible along with user interface improvements to help users understand Date Ranges better.

Results Streaming format utility

Results can now be streamed to files on disk rather than stored in memory. This is to prevent memory issues with large runs.  Results streaming is off by default, however, it can be turned on in Project Options:

        -f, --force[optional]... Don't prompt for confirmation when overwriting an existing file.  

New Version Number system

We have changed the version number system to help users understand when users they need a new version of Source to open projects.  The previous database version was a letter that wasn't in the version number.

...

This is why this release is 4.13.0beta rather than 4.12.4beta, as it would have been in the previous system1beta rather than 4.12.4beta, as it would have been in the previous system.

Ownership adjustment for Storages and Weirs

We previously had no way of adjusting the ownership mass balance on storage nodes post timestep. Often there are decisions that move ownership about as a result of management or policy decisions based on what happened that day.  We now have an option to adjust the End of day volumes in Storages and Weirs.

Plugin Developers

We have moved to .NET 4.8 and are looking at moving to the new .csproj format on our journey to .net core. Once we complete this, we will require plugin developers to upgrade to Visual Studio 2019.

Regression Testing

We have removed the tolerance in our regression tests to help find issues earlier if we get different results on different machines or versions of operating systems.

Insight

To run Insight, you also need to install the 32bit version of Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package.
This installer is for both 32bit machines and 64bit machines since the library we use is 32bit: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86).
