Summary: simdata plugin should check if data has changed before modifying node

Created: 2010–03–31 18:42

Status: Released

Category: Request

From: frankie

Version: 2.0

Released_In: 2.1

Description:

the current simdata plugin sets the value for all mapped variables every cycle, and then sets the modified flag to let DOUG know they have been modified.

We recently ran into an issue where comm was getting flooded with a large number of nodes changing every pass, and upon inspection, it looks like 88 nodes were getting updated each cycle from the playback. Looking closer however, most of this were plume nodes and other nodes which are often unchanged.

This is a request to add in an if check to see if the current value or flag state in the node matches the value being supplied by the sim data. If it doesn't match, the code should not modify the node and simply move on to the next variable.
