New Features and Enhancements

1D Integrity Tool - Support Link Offsets for SWMM Layers

Support SWMM channel layers with link offsets representing elevations rather than depths for the flow trace and continuity checks. This option is only available when SWMM conduits are present in the ‘1D Network Line Layer’ input.

Increment Layer - GPKG Increment Layer (tool within context menu)

Adds option to not supersede the existing layer. If the user decides not to supersede the existing layer, then the increment layer name option must be ticked on.

Increment Layer - Remove/Keep Source Layer Setting is Now Remembered

The option whether to keep or remove the source layer when incrementing a shapefile is now remembered from the previous time the tool was run.

ReFH2 to TUFLOW - Climate Change Factor Accepts Two Decimal Places

The climate change factor input now accepts two decimal places instead of just one.
