==6.6.3==
- Inflow years are now treated as wrapping around from the first to the last year followed by the mean year.  
The 'mean' value in the Volatility matrix is no longer valid and a run with repeating mean years is not possible. For example setting the InflowYear before 1930 where 1931 is the first inflow year will start the run in a mean year.

- Seperating out hydro code and adding serialisation to the hydro configurations, so hydro definitions can be saved

- Fixed Group Constraints, which were not working.

- Water values now use the matrix form of the valuation file. The values from the matrices can be used directly, - choose 'MX' in the WV type or by converting them to contours first (choose 'MD') (The choice has been disabled for this version, only MD is available)

- Removing automatic reserve region association, which referenced which side of the HVDC each node was. EMarket uses the user entered reserve region by node instead. 

- Hydro resources in hydro systems now use the full resource name of the Hydro System

==6.5.9==
- Added a starting storages file.  This file is used to continue from a previously executed run. The file is loaded as a CSV file in the Misc directory.  The first line contains the original Run start date, from which inflowyears are run. Following lines contain two cells, containing the reservoir name and the starting storage in Mm2 respectively.

- Added Short Storage generators (batteries)

==6.4.8==
- Generator + Reserves constraints now properly implemented

- Generators with no energy offers will be treated like ILR when offering reserve (no reserve/generation constraints)

==6.4.7==
- Fixed an error when saving resources where more than one system variable is being used

- Added an option to the output spec filter 'Version' : use 'Version*' instead to output the partition names without including the dimension name.

==6.4.6==
- fixed a bug with running more than one time step 'stage'

==6.4.5==
- Generator description shows in the market configuration page

==6.4.4==
- Fixes crashes caused by null strings in resources

- Fixes problems with entry and deletion of items in the market configuration

- 1 MW tolerance on unit constraints removed

- Corrected the starting storage for the uncontrolled reservoirs in the water value calculation

==6.4.2==
- Implement contraint adjustments when IQP fails

- Corrected the starting storage for the uncontrolled reservoirs in the  water value calculation

==6.4.1==
- Hydro paramaters max, min flow can now vary over time within the water value calculation algorithm.

- Bug fix to the new dispatch engine, Binary (cautious) solves were not working properly and were throwing up errors

- Fixed the results viewer in the water value window.

- Fixed the Adjust WVs by Location option which was stuck at always on

==6.3.11==
- Now has Modulation Risk and shared NFR maximums enforced.  Interface shows all reserve sharing variables
- Some Refactoring, Binarydirectory added but not used yet
- Tidied up dispatch options:

  Options controlled through codes in the run description: 
  +OD old dispatch
  +CP corrected pricing
  +SRO model sustained reserve only
  +FRO model fast reserve only
  +NNCC no non-convex constraints
  +EI(<n>) do n extra iterations in dispatch
  +MPFD(<kW2>) maximum power flow delta to exit iteration

  NMIR factors tha may be controlled by defining a global variable:
  FIREffectivenessFactor         Default 0.8
  ForwardSharingLimit            Default 220
  ReverseSharingLimit            Default 220
  RoundPowerMax                  Default 22.5
  MonopoleMinPlusMR              Default 65
  ModulationRisk                 Default 30
  BipoleTransitionStartingPoint  Default 180

- Allow results graphs to be synchronised
- Put run editing panels into Panes.  Put arbitrary run settings into a 'Run extra settings' fields which can be edited by the user. each setting is a fieldname - value pair seperated by a colon.
- Added Starting Water Value Adjustment.  These are done in the Run extra settings  using the fieldname 'StartingWaterValue'.  The value is three comma seperated parameters representing the Generator Name, StartWaterValue and Merge Days which causes the water value at that generator to start at the given value and return to the calculated value over the period given by the Merge days parameter
- EMarket now using the same dispatch engine as EMO.  HVDC modeling and Reserve sharing now enabled

==6.2.21==
