I'm using
TOOL,"Bookings Table",31,7,100,50,,,CUSTOM>Bookings,

I'll try your suggestion.

It is correct, but only because I left the GAMECONTROL page, which the table is on, and then returned to it. Before I left the page the table showed only column 1 after each time step, like this, http://simulations.russellpartnership.tech/download/table2.PNG I can upload the files in a short while. ...

I'm nearly there! I have a table as an output in my Venapp control screen, shown below. The time now refreshes when the 'Forward' button is pressed, but the table doesn't. It only displays column 1 (the run is time 1 -31), unless I leave the screen and then return, at which point it has refreshed al...

That worked perfectly, thank you very much.

I am running my model behind a Venapp interface, with a timestep of one day. I have a button for the user to move the game forward day by day and the current day is displayed in a rectangle at the top of teh screen. The controls for the time display are TEXTONLY,"Time",18,6,0,0,R,,, SHOWVA...

Thanks. Given that all I need to do is to present the users with a list of all 31 variable choices each timestep, your suggestion should work fine, thank you. As usual, I just wanted to check I wasn't missing an obvious trick!

Perhaps a better question would be, 'how do I offer a subscripted gamed variable for user input in Venapp?', rather than citing a specific case!!

Sorry, the image link didn't seem to work in my original post. Here is the image again.

Hello, I have successfully run a Venapp interface on a model requiring users to input prices as time goes by. The variable 'Price' is set as a Gamed Auxiliary variable and I used these commands, TEXTONLY,"Prices",20,45,0,0,C MODVAR,"Price",15,50,10,0,L,[0|500] That worked properl...

I'm running version 6.3D. I looked on the download page, but there are only 32bit versions available.

Hello, I am trying to run the attached, very simple, model in Vensim DSS64, in gaming mode. When I click the 'Forward' button. to move to the next time period, I get a 'Vensim STOP' error panel, with the message 'Unable to open Current.vdf64 - nothing saved'. The model simulates successfully normall...

Great advice, thanks Tom. I thought I would create the basic model in parallel in Vensim and Ventity (beta), to help me understand the fundamental differences.

Hello, I would very much appreciate some advice from more experienced Vensim modellers. I am building a model of a 'revenue management' system, where prices and inventory change over time. It is a model involving the sale of seats on an aircraft and we have one aircraft, with 100 seats, making one f...

Emails to ventity@ventanasystems.com are being returned as 'undeliverable'. Is that the wrong email address?

A very minor point, I know, but you say this is release 654, yet the 'About Ventity' info doesn't say that.

I use Vensim Pro, so I wasn't aware of that and will consider an upgrade. Will Ventity have a similar capability?

Thank you for the new beta release extending access to January. The accompanying email mentioned time series data support and I would be very keen to see the ability to link Ventity (and Vensim, come to that) to an online database such as MySQL. Currently, we have to get a client's IT department inv...

When I launched Ventity 1.0 beta this morning I received a warning that 'This executable will expire on 31st October 2015' and a suggestion to contact ventity@ventanasystems.com for information on how to continue using the beta version. I send an email to that address, but it was returned with this ...

Thanks Tom. I had tried making a duplicate of the dataset, but that didn't make any difference. Adding a new one, though, did include the pastures attribute, which I had added after creating the original dataset, as you say.

Here's the model I am referring to. I would be very interested to know if anyone else can see the Pastures column on the Cows tab in the 'BuiltIn: many pastures' input data table (or point out where I've gone wrong). In the model as I am viewing it, there doesn't seem to be a way to link the cows to...

I followed the exercises in the Ventity manual and got as far as exercise 3 without any problems. I tried to move straight from exercise 2 to exercise 3 so, having finished exercise 2 and leaving the program open, I added the 'Cows' entity, then the associated auxiliary variable and attribute. Follo...

Thanks very much and I'm sorry for wasting your time. That's what I thought I had done, but I kept getting the error "incorrect number of subscripts for -Visitors-". I closed Vensim down after I posted my question and now when I try again it works. I must have being doing something else wr...

I'm afraid this is another example of something that should be easy, but I'm just not seeing it. In the attached model I have a variable 'Visitors', containing subscripted data for 13 product sectors and three geographical regions. Sales in the sector 'Leisure Day', for example, are 3,000 in Country...

Thank you both. I had thought of the PULSE variable, but wasn't sure, as it's use isn't very clear from the Vensim manual, but it worked very well. Excellent help, as usual.

Hello, I have a model (extract sketch attached) that includes a sequence for building new hotel properties. Once a hotel is built, the level OpenHotel, subscripted for the new properties, changes from a zero to a one. At that time, I want to pass a construction cost to a new variable, so that when O...
