4.8.1 - Beta Release (March 2019)

New Charting tool 

The new charting tool is now on by default. Please let us know if you have issues.

Data Sources Filter

There is now a filter for when looking for a data source or its usage:

TimeSeries Flux for On-Farm Storages

On-Farm storages at a water user node now have a"Timeseries Flux". Water added to the On-Farm Storage by the Timeseries Flux functionality only occurs during the Flow Phase. This is in addition to any other Water User Ordering and extractions.  The water delivered by the timeseries flux is not actually extracted from the Supply Point”.

Calculation of Total Distribution Losses

We have modified how distribution losses are calculated. 

Run period of the model should not be limited by observed data 

The run period was constrained when some observed data had been included.  We have removed this restriction to allow the model run period to be longer than observed data in the model.

Plugin Developers

We are planning on moving to C# 7, Visual Studio 2019 and .net 4.7.2 this year, so you will need to make sure you have updated Visual Studio to continue developing plugins in the beta versions.

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).
