Interactive simulation

Hi
I am trying to use Vensim interactively, i.e. using input controls to change a parameter while the simulation is running but with no success, can this be done with Vensim?. I've seen this on I think soft ware
Regards
Nabil

Chapter 11 of the User's Guide covers games - perhaps this is what you are looking for.

Thanks for the reply, I don't think Gaming will help since in Gaming mode intervention can be done at the end of the time interval. I am trying to run Morecrofts shower model interactively adjusting the the flow of hot water while the simulation is running and the temeperature is changing .
Can this be done ?
Regards
Nabil

In a Venapp you can do this using game mode and a setting a timer to continually advance the game. There isn't a mechanism to do the same in the regular Vensim interface.
