November, 29th, 2018

New Features

Multiple Runs is a power feature that allows you to simulate hundreds of Quick Runs to get statistical insight on how your systems play out. The vast majority of game systems have random elements for emergence; so every single play session is going to be different

Improvements

Quick Run client-server performance and Run buttons responsiveness during execution;
Diagram execution speed and performance
Changes for Time Step Interval and Time Steps Limits
Labels editing for nodes and groups
Chart navigation through different Runs history
Diagram execution with smaller than 1s time interval, eg: connections blink

November 13th, 2018

New Features

Chart history – you can now compare Run iteration outcomes on the same Chart. Use the << >> to navigate through your executions, ie: Run diagram and plot the values of a Pool, then Stop, change a parameter and Run again to notice the differences. The same for Quick Run executions. NOTE that for now you should keep your Time Steps Limit ideally lower than 100 for best performance. While you will get results in the range of hundreds, you will notice slow responsiveness. While still to be improved, this feature is one big step forward towards Multiple Runs (Monte Carlo)
Reopen last edited diagram – straightforward and useful
Live Support widget in the bottom right that you can use straight from the app.

Fixes

Percentage label modifiers – now show up as % instead of decimal values, ie: State Connection with a +20% Label pointing towards a Resource Connection Label value of 10 will display 10+20% @Jordan
Colour coded state connections – you can now use Colour Coding on State Connections, ie: only specific coloured resource within a Pool will influence feedback loops
Resource and State Connections – line manipulation and drawing improvements
Moving Groups – fixes with multiple selections

November 1st, 2018

Improvements

File Handling: complex diagrams would previously cause a “Drawing is too large” error and freeze. We’ve improved our client-server communication and this shouldn’t happen anymore, regardless of diagram size. If you do manage to freeze it, please let us know how many elements and connections on it, or send us a screenshot
Quick Run: now runs more responsive, also fixed some situations where Quick Run would result in a halt at “0” steps @João Castro. There’s still a performance issue when running Quick Run with the Chart open. Working on it. As a quick fix, we’ve downgraded the default Quick Run Steps limit to 100 (previously 1000). This will not be updated on old diagrams, so if you run into performance freeze, please downscale the number of Quick Run Steps you’re simulating. NOTE: it’s best practice to have a diagram End Condition when using Quick Run, to avoid infinite loops on the server, thanks!
Chart: overall chart animation running more smoothly

Fixes

Gate with colour coded outputs now working as intended, so you can use a Gate to sort resources by type @Christoph
The Pool modified by a Register value not updating status on State Connections outputs @Jordan
Autosave causing text deletion during label edit
Queue as conditional activator, now you can use State Connection feedbacks to create buffers, ie: Source active while Queue <10
File list filtering on Open file menu
Label placement improvements. Still a few glitches here, but we’re catching up with them

October 23rd, 2018

New Features

AutoSave – exactly what you would expect, working diagrams get auto saved every 10s or 10 actions. This is a big step towards Machinations becoming a full-feature webapp, with Version History, Live Collaboration, etc. Right now, it solves the great risk of losing unsaved work, which is a critical priority for us.
Multi-Waypoint Connector Drawing – Resource and State Connections can now be placed with multiple inflexions, by point and click. This is a legacy feature from Machinations desktop, that some of our users requested and we felt it would do a better job at connecting nodes on a crowded diagram.
Menu shortcut: File -> New From Template. More templates to be added today.
Various small improvements.

Fixes

“all” Label on Resource Connections – now works as intended, “all” moves all resources available from the source node to the destination.
Improved loading time – server routines for faster client responsiveness.
Diagrams with groups in them sometimes not saving properly.
Server connectivity issues and various small fixes.

Framework Differences

The major differences between the old desktop and the new .io version

No more Connection length as time variable: Resources are transferred and arrive at their destination Node during the same Step, regardless of Connection length. E.g.: if previously the speed of the Resources would stay fixed and the arrival time would vary, now the speed varies and the transfer time is fixed (all Resources arrive at their destination in exactly 1 Step).
No Async Mode
No Turn-Based Mode
No Artificial Player (AP) – you can emulate AP functions with existing components
Registers now support the entire math.js functions library.
Combining flow rates: use 50%+50% instead of the old 2*50% label.
Number interval Label x-y has become x..y
Time interval Label x/y has become x|y
Charts plot the Pool colour, instead of the Resource’s colour.
Colour Coding is a Connection-level setting, it no longer affects the global Diagram.
No more m modifier
Obvious: Cloud save, UI/UX improvements, Groups, Library, Errors/Validators, Real-time collaboration, Version History
Triggers cannot trigger Resource Connections
