SAve and restore the state of the model during a simulation run

Hi All,

I looking for an option to save the current state of a model and restore it afterwards.
Some infos for the indented application: Flexsim is communicating with an external application and generates test data which are communicated to and fro the external application. So Flexsim can be seen as a testbed. If an error occurs in the external application it would be nice to save the model state in Flexsim (item position, component states, etc.) in order to restore the model state later on and reproduce the error in the external application. To my knowledge Flexsim saves the model but not the state of the model therefore an empty model is saved. Is there any solution to this issue?

Thanks,
Stephan Seidel

Just a personal question, because I stumbled upon this thread.
If I use the savestate() command, which should do the same, where is the state-file saved on the harddisk?

savestate() doesn't do anything to the harddisk. It saves the state of the project into the model tree so that when you save the model (with a different command), it saves the "state" of the project with the model. Additionally, loadstate() moves the saved information from the model into the project to return to the saved state. Neither actually affects files on the harddisk.

Those two commands are used (along with other commands) in the menu commands for saving and loading state.
