Alastri is pleased to announce the release of v24.2. This is a major release mainly focused on adding and enhancing features in Alastri Production Scheduler and Alastri Tactical Scheduler. Additionally, setup tasks that exist in APS that improve the overall usability have been integrated into ATS.
If you cannot see version 24.2 in the Hub, please contact one of your company’s license administrators and ask them to change the organisation’s permissions via the licensing website.
Some very minor scripting changes may be required to update to 24.2, depending on the project setup. Please contact the support desk if you encounter any problems with scripts.
Production Scheduler
Settings - Units
Ability to select different Units of measure when setting up APS model.
Expression Builder
Ability to calculate database fields without the need for custom extensions. These can be used in addition to extensions, but it is important to note that Expressions are calculated prior to Extensions.
Feedable Stocks
Ability
Database - Fields - Temporary Fields
Ability to mark fields as temporary. Fields marked as temporary can be used in refinements but are not carried through to the final database. This can be useful to avoid carrying extra fields all the way through to reports when the fields are only required for calculations.
Database - Map Data - Improved Validation
Certain errors in mappings caused by changes made in Rapid Reserver were previously ignored. These will now block the user from progressing in the step unless they explicitly choose to ignore these errors.
Animation - Export Period Solids by Volume
Ability to export period solids which are clipped to period volumes. By default APS exports the full solid regardless of how much is mined in each period.
Chrono Charts - Skip Zero Values
Ability to skip zero values in charts. This will stop line charts from dropping to zero which can be a bit misleading.
Top Chart below has Skip Zero Values turned off, while the bottom chart has it turned on.
Tactical Scheduler
Waste Dumps and Stockpiles Bulk Edit Ability
Ability to select multiple dumps or stockpiles and use new right hand panel to make changes to all selected.
Drill Subsets
Ability to create subsets for drills which can be used to setup Incentives, Constraints and Reports.
Agent Subsets
Ability to create subsets for agents which can be used to setup Incentives, Destination Logic, Steps, Constraints and Reports.
Chrono Charts - Skip Zero Values
Ability to skip zero values in charts. Same feature as explained in APS.
Haul Infinity
Parameters - Theoretical Max Rate
Ability to see theoretical max loader rate based upon the inputs provided. Provides a quick validation of inputs without having to run a check in the Network.
Rapid Reserver
Phases - Visibility Control
Ability to turn phases visibility on and off in Phases Step.
Phase Exclusion Area - Minimum Area
Ability set minimum area on exclusion zones to avoid creation large numbers of small polygons.
Bench Depletion - Minimum Area
