This contains information about features no longer in use for the current release of SMS. The content may not apply to current versions. |

ADH features not supported by SMS can be added in the ADH Model Control dialog (ADH | Model Control... command). It is accessed in the ADH Model Control dialog by clicking on the Advanced tab.
SMS includes support for many of the features in ADH, however, this list of features is a dynamic set. The user base of ADH includes a development team that is constantly experimenting with new options.
This window allows SMS to maintain the options that are not otherwise supported by the interface. For example, when SMS reads the BC file for an ADH simulation, and encounters a card that it does not recognize, that card is stored, verbatim, to a list of "Advanced Cards". That list is displayed in this window.
Enter cards in this dialog to experiment with other new features in the model. As those features are added to the list of supported features, they would automatically be moved to their own location in the model control the next time SMS reads the BC file.
Unsupported or advanced cards are written at the end of the BC file, just before the END card. This relies on the attribute of ADH that does not require any order dependence in the BC file.
Model options not available in the interface can be specified under the Advanced tab. Each row in the spreadsheet will be saved as a different line in the *.bc file. The cards can be inserted and deleted using the Insert Row 
and Delete Row 
buttons.
- The lines will be written out exactly as typed.
- The lines will be written out in the order in which they appear in the dialog.
- Any lines encountered in a *.bc file that is not recognized will appear in this list.
- Lines beginning with a "!" character are treated as comment lines and will be skipped over during a read.
- Comment lines are automatically generated and will not be preserved.
- All of these advanced cards will be grouped together at the bottom of the file regardless of where they appeared during reading.
