Perform only necessary computations

Applicable to CivilStorm, StormCAD, and probably PondPack.


Sometimes we only use the software to perform certain computations. For example, we are wanting to analyze the storm sewer. The drainage areas would be connected to catchbasin elements. However, we do not want to analyze the catchbasins or perform any sort of gutter analysis. It would be nice to be able to simply activate/deactivate computations like this. Currently, we have to modify all the catch basins to have a large gutter width, set all the inlets to being "in sag" to avoid and minimize all the "error" message that pop up for gutter computations that we are not even trying to perform.

    Shipping new calculation option in 2026 release to assume inlets capture 100% of catchment flows directed to them.

    Can you not create a child scenario with a "Base active topology" alternative?
