11.1 Output Location

To set the location of where the outputs are written to, the Output Folder command is used. For example “Output Folder == <folder>” redirects all TUFLOW output data except the log and summary files to the specified folder.

Outputs can be written in a different location to where the model sits. It is typically recommended to write outputs to your local C: or D: drive instead of filling up the network drive, or to keep results separate to the input data. A URL can be used (e.g. \myserver), which is useful for running simulations on other computers, but with the output directed to your local drive (your drive will need to be shared) or other location.

The Output Drive command can be used to change the drive letter of any output files with a full path specified. For example “Output Drive == K” changes any output filepaths that have a drive letter to the K drive.
