Release 7.3

• New features and enhancements:
  • Improve performance when computing routing graphs.
  • Add support for parallelization in the context of computing routing graphs.
  • Improve Kernel Control Center start-up times with large plant models.
  • Execute the kernel heartbeat logger with a fixed delay instead of a fixed rate to avoid accumulating task executions in case other tasks hog the kernel executor.
• Bugs fixed:
  • Allow to properly change the name of an already named transport order destination's location via the Java API.
  • Ensure that orders for automatic recharging do not try to send vehicles to locked locations.
  • Skip to lower-priority parking positions if those with a higher priority are available but not reachable for the respective vehicle.
  • Update a point figure in the Model Editor when its y-coordinate is changed via the properties panel. (Previously, only changes to the x-coordinate triggered an update.)
  • Avoid an exception when loading a plant model with polygonal paths that do not have any control points.
  • In the Operations Desk application's "send to location" dialog, ensure that the list of destination operations for the currently selected location does not contain NOP multiple times.
  • When processing position updates from vehicles, allow any point on the vehicle's route, explicitly including the initial position.
  • In the Model Editor application, allow setting a point's orientation angle to NaN when it previously had a numeric value.
