Release Notes for Version 4.3.1

January 2011

• Fixed a problem that base scenario in xml configuration created from template doesn't have a executable flag; see trac ticket #28 (Thank KirillMueller for the patch)
• Fixed misplaced building_type_id and zone_id field of building_sqft_per_job table in san_antonio_zone sample data (Thank JinShi? for pointing it out).
• Enhanced GUI tooltip to show value and inheritance information for node (Thank KirillMueller for the patch)

December 2010

• Re-organized model and UPC modules directly in opus_core into models and upc sub-directory
• Moved estimation and simulation to opus_core from urbansim
• Merged generic_model_explorer with opus_core/simulation/model_explorer
• Moved tools/start_estimation and tools/explore_model to opus_core from urbansim
• Fixed a bug that causes an xml project unable to load in GUI when the expression library of its parent project contains duplicate variables.

November 2010

• When using RunManager? a random seed is generated for each simulated year and saved together with the configuration in the services database. Thus, when a run is restarted, it gets the same random seed as an uninterrupted run.

October 2010

• The use of scipy.ndimage is replaced by opus_core.ndimage to address int64 index type error in scipy 0.7.0 and backward compatibility issue in scipy 0.8.0.
• Added a GUI tool to import csv data to opus.
• Fixed a GUI Tool importing error for data_manager.tools by changing value of path_to_tool_modules node.
