Current Version is 4.3.10
Here's a brief summary of recent releases:
Version 4.3.10 (June 2014)
New Features- User sees a warning message if the model start time is set to something greater than 7 days
- Increased the maximum number of resource assignments for an activity from 9 to 99
- Added "Start an Activity on Specific Patients" pickoption to all trigger fields
- Gave user the option to update location statistics for companions that do not actually enter a location
Bug Fixes- The experiment variable to update an Arrival Table now sets the PCI column correctly
- The Data Collector's "List of Locations" recording criteria option now accepts Areas as well as Locations
- Data Collectors now pass the correct value for "lastval" in column calculation functions
- Fixed the "Standard Down" function for Time Tables and Random Interrupts so that it doesn't cause exceptions later in certain memory conditions
- Updated the "Resume Object Flow" function for Time Tables and Random Interrupts so that locations don't receive extra patients when they resume
- Fixed an animation problem when patients try to sit down while carrying something
- If a Location's Area is changed to an Area that does not yet exist, the Location's input and output ports are deleted
- Fixed an exception that occurred when switching from a bar chart to a dot plot in the Patient Waiting Time dashboard widget
- Standing animation is now applied to staff called as operators to ItemProcessing objects
- Removed a warning that occurred if a model had just item class objects
- The shape on Patient Processing objects will now either do nothing or animate patient according to patient's last known position as recorded in the frame attribute.
- Fixed problems with Patient Rounds option for Custom Activities
- Global Processes are now correctly giving a unique PatientID value for reporting purposes
- Fixed speed adjustment problems that could occur in models where patients are transported
- Fixed Dispatch Companions picklist option so that it properly manages location statistics
Version 4.3.8 (May 2014)
New Features- Utilization box plots only record a single value per period per day - this applies to Resources, Locations and Item Object widgets
- Added box plots to State widgets for Resources, Locations and Item Objects that work like the Utilization box plots
- Improved look and behavior of box plots
- Added box plot to Resource Distance Traveled widget
Bug fixes- Fixed how the box plot displays the range on the y-axis if the number of decimals being displayed is 0
- Patient Throughput box plots no longer have extra observations if the model starts at a time other than 01:00:00
- Fixed a bug in Census box plot that was causing too many 0s to be recorded
- Resource State dot plots are now refreshed correctly during a model run
- Long DataCollector names are handled better when they are exported to Excel
- Correct spacing between multiple options in a trigger field is now ensured
- Patients no longer line up at Arrival objects - it was causing replications to not repeat predictably
- GlobalProcesses can no longer start before 0.000011 - this keeps them from having issues with early events on Patients
- The version number is now displayed as 4.3.8 (instead of 4.38)
- Stopped some irritating messages when models were opened in Demo or Runtime mode
Version 4.3.6 (April 2014)

- When models are updated from previous versions, a list of the old versions is kept
- Dot plots now list the replication number of an observation in the popup window
- Bar charts and box plots now support and display negative results
Bug fixes- Fixed how line charts merge data from multiple replications
- Fixed how throughput box plots handle start times, warmup times and empty periods
- Utilization bar charts now show the percentage by the bar names
- Fixed a bug where states were being set incorrectly when a model was stopped
- Improved and fixed the behavior of the Areas drop-down list on Location parameter GUIs
- Fixed an exception in Resource, Location and Item State and Utilization dot plots
- Fixed an exception in Utilization Box Plots if the model ran more than one day
- Copying and pasting item objects now adds them to the Flowcharting View as well
- Sample Set names are now checked for validity before they are applied
- Making nearly any change to the model will set the active scenario number to 0
- Choosing an Area in a Location Parameters GUI now applies immediately
- Histograms manage the size of their y-axis better
- Replaced a lot of uses of getlabelval() with getlabelvalue()
- GUI improvements
