Pivot reports and Chrono reports can be converted into Spreadsheet reports, or Spreadsheet reports can be created from scratch using special formulas which extract data from the software and place it in the report. These formulas can be found in the Formulas->Alastri Formulas menu.

This report is a basic version of Excel. It performs worse and lacks many features that Excel has. While the spreadsheet report will improve over time, it will never match the capability of Excel. As users of Excel ourselves, we fully understand all of the shortcomings of the spreadsheet report compared with Excel. |

The support desk is not available to assist with creating, modifying, or improving spreadsheet reports; however, this service can be provided through the consulting team. |

Spatial Conformetrics has a new and improved workflow. This new workflow is much faster to configure for large, complex projects (though mildly slower for very simple setups). It also enables far more customisation of reports and has more data export options.

Surface Morphing Improvement

Surface Morphing | |
|---|---|
Vertical | Material from the Schedule Solid will be depleted vertically and repositioned in the void that exists between the Production Surface and Schedule Solid. This method honours the volume of the void and the volume filling it. Once the void has been filled, any excess material will occupy the footprint of the original solid but at a reduced height. 
|
Horizontal | Material from the Schedule Solid will be depleted horizontally and repositioned in the void that exists between the Production Surface and Schedule Solid. Material will fill the void in the opposite direction as the solid is being depleted. This method honours the volume of the void and the volume filling into it. Once the void has been filled, any excess material will be left at its original height but occupy a reduced footprint of the original solid. Note the software does its best to guess the direction; the user has no direct control over direction. 
|
Forced | Material from the Schedule Solid will be repositioned in the void that exists between the Production Surface and Schedule Solid. This method does not honour the volume of the void and the volume of material going into it. Once the void has been filled, any excess material will be thrown away.  |
Haul Infinity
Battery Trucks
Haul Infinity now supports trucks that use batteries as a power source instead of diesel (or some other form of hydrocarbon). Additionally, it’s now possible to model regenerative braking and recharging trucks that are connected to a trolley-assist system.
It’s now possible to track battery usage over a haulage cycle, instantaneous power draw (or recharge).
...
Further, the time taken to recharge the trucks between hauls (if needed) is now included in the cycle time analysis:
...
All these new fields associated with battery trucks are now available in both APS and ATS, which allows for modelling battery truck requirements (and comparing against conventional trucks).
Note that in order to use these functions, the performance information of the battery-powered trucks must be provided by the user. The Alastri truck library does not contain any battery-powered trucks yet (because none currently exist in production quantities).
Isolated Joins
Various improvements to how the Auto Join feature works have been made. These include adding an additional field to the Properties panel for a selected block, which will allow users to diagnose auto join issues related to the segment not being at the same height as the RL.
