Sable time step v's reporting time

I have a Vensim model with a time step of 5 minutes but I only want Sable to report on it ( calculate? ) at hourly intervals otherwise it runs too slowly.

How do I tell Sable to draw graphs or do animations at an interval greater than a time step?

Are you running a game?

Not running a Game, just using Sable to link into the model that I published.

Then the answer is you cannot do anything about it. I'll add it to the list for a future update though.

Try changing the save period in Vensim (SAVEPER)

Go to menu>Model>settings and the "Time Bounds" tab

De-select "save results every time step" and choose a new interval at which to save results.

The model will still calculate at the "5 minute" time step but report results at the newly selected period, both in Vensim and Sable
