Create a rule to set drainage node to (active terrain) when setting elevation reference

Presently when setting reference elevation for the node it lets you set it to the active terrain but does not rule it to the (active terrain). If this were done the inlet tops would automatically adjust as the design terrain changes.

DU: add drop calculation to node invert depending on lowest conduit wall thickness

Some times, most common with concrete conduits, the node invert needs to have a drop in reference to the lowest pipe to acomodate its wall. This would later be filled to match.For construction and BIM purpose, this difference is important. Special...

Connection Region in Bottom of Node

The current connection region of drainage nodes are available for the side faces of node only. The software should allow the connection region of pipe/conduit from the bottom of the node.

ORD Drainage - Separate CUlverts and Storm Sewer Pipes into Completely Separate Design Windows

Having to click 'Is Culvert' is just one more placve an error can take place in design. Creating spearate design windows for each of these elements will minimize this potential, and will make it easier for reviews as well.

Catchment Areas by shape

If I could select all shapes and have it create all catchments at once that would save a lot of time. It would be great to have a dialogue box pop up where defaults can be changed.

Automate the assignment of a node's sump offset based on largest connecting pipe's wall thickness

We are looking for a workflow where the Sump depth value can be set to the thickness of the "largest pipe" connected to a node. When the user places a node, if there is an option to set the sump depth to the thickness of the pipe, then it would au...
