Better functionality for multiruns
- number episodes in episode collection
- sort runs according to number
- greater timesteps for runoff only runs
- resume with next run if a run fails
- easy export of maximum results of runs (without results of the runoff only runs)

RTC range: give the choice to include or exclude the minimum or maximum value
Make it possible to define 'greater than (GT)' or 'greater or equal (GE)' in a range in RTC.

More flexibility for pdm runs
We would like to be able to simulate warmup and hydraulic simulations with different input sources. Now the run crashes if for example rainfall data does not match the saved state of the warmup run. It would also be very useful to make it possible to do the warmup run with a higher calculation time step.

Pause simulations during server restarts
Please could we have an ability to pause simulations whilst an InfoWorks ICM server is restarted?
As part of the wider drive to reduce CSO spills there is an increasing need to run long time series through sewer models. This can require models to simulate for multiple weeks; this isn't compatible with automatic updating on servers, which restarts them to apply updates, which causes any active simulation to fail.
Microsoft Azure for example has a monthly patching cycle and sometimes more frequent for ad-hoc critical security updates. With simulations running for multiple weeks and more InfoWorks users moving to cloud…5 votes -
Un-ticking All Objects under ICM Properties and Themes
The "Properties and Themes" provides the option to Display certain model Object Layers (i.e. Node, Conduit, 2D Zone, etc.). It is a very long list of about 50 layers.
It would be helpful if there is an option to Tick (or Un-Tick) all layers at once.

split network results lines
it would be great if the "splitting lines" function can be applied to network results lines too, which would help a lot if we need to break up a large amount of NRLs into multiple segments rather than redrawing them.

Need additional Timestep function for "Between episodes" of "Simulation runoff only"
It needs creating a new Timestep function in ICM Run window that allows setting up timestep for "Simulation runoff only" for the "Between episodes" separately with "Timestep (s)" in Run window. This new function saves a lot of running time when the model can simulate the runoff only with larger time step using the "Episode Collection"

Mesh zone on Mesh Zone
The ability to have a mesh zone on a mesh zone. This would be useful when modelling Attenuation basins in 3D (using ground model / breaklines). It would easily allow to have a coarse mesh for the basin floor to improve the stability of Outfall 2Ds (where small triangles can limit flow to the outfall 2D) but still allow for a finer mesh for basin sides and in your study area.

Faster release Exchange license
After a user uses the Exchange license, it takes ages before the license is released again so another user can use it.

Restrict user ability to "Empty Recycle Bin"
Ideally it would be good to give a couple of named users the ability to empty the recycle bin - everyone else can send things TO the recycle bin, and can go into the bin to recover 'deleted' items, but they won't be able to empty it. This functionality is already present in some other software suites, for example Microsoft SharePoint, where only users designated as 'administrators' can empty the recycle bin.
The recycle bin in ICM is a wonderful upgrade over CS, in that it is now possible to retrieve certain items that have been accidently deleted. However, I…

Highlight and delete multiple vertices when editing features (e.g. roughness zones)
In GIS software when editing features, there is often an option to select a number of vertices to delete/move them as a group. This would speed up time taken to edit features in the model like roughness zones that often need a lot of editing to be compatible with the mesh.

Classic view property sheet
The classical lay out of object properties (property sheet in CS) in a separate window with different tabs i really did find easier to view and edit models.
Also the cross section view of a link and manhole vertical section were really usefull parts to visualize the model in parts.
I would really appreciate if the old way of presenting model parts would be optionally brought back into the package.1 vote -

Pruning does not sub reassign drainage links correctly
When pruning, subcatchment drainage manholes are reassigned to the first modeled downstream manhole. However, when pruning subcatchments that drain to single or multiple links, ICM gives incorrect results in some cases and doesn't work at all in other cases, which then causes validation errors after pruning. I submitted this as a bug since it gives incorrect results, but Innovyze asked me to submit is as a "feature request". So please vote for this so it can be fixed and work correctly.

I would like to be-able to reorder scenarios in the drop down in ICM
II would like to be able to change order of scenarios (after Base). So be able to move up scenarios or down scenarios in the drop down list. I often have to delete scenarios or created amended versions of copied scenarios and this often results in a pretty messed up list of scenarios

Would like MSI installer licensing option flags
As an IT admin, I would like to install XPSWMM/XPSTORM using the MSI installer with flags to set the licensing options, so that I can automate the installation.

Allow user to set number format in ICM grid windows
It would be great if a user could set number formats in InfoWorks ICM grid windows. For example, we are calibrating a large diameter pipeline by adjusting Manning's n values. We are using 5 digits after the decimal place, but ICM only shows 4 digits. When I copy from the grid, it only copies 4 digits after the decimal. So I have to use a csv export to see the actual values. Or at least set Manning's n values to 5 digits after the decimal place.

Assign InfoWorks Agent Groups by hostname prefix or wildcard
The InfoWorks Agent coordinator settings allow simulation machines to be grouped by hostname. However, when using Azure virtual machine scale sets (and likely other similar auto scaling cloud environments) a preconfigured hostname includes an incremental suffix (00001, 0000A...FFFFF) that cannot be predetermined. It would be useful if it was possible to assign machines to groups using just the initial characters of the hostname (without the suffix) or by using a wildcard.

User URL for X/Y Coordinates
Currently, the User URL option for the "View Online" menu in Innovyze ICM only allows for the output of longitude and latitude coordinates. Our GIS system is built on the BNG projection and therefore uses X/Y coordinates in its URL. Can you enable X/Y coordinates to be used in the User URL generated by ICM?
