OK, just looking for early feedback on a new feature I've added to the Beta.

In the tools pulldown menu, look for Sensitivity Studies.

It should be pretty self explanatory, but if not I'll answer questions. In the same breath I know there are a few quirks but I've not decided how to deal with them yet (biggest one being the plot not resetting if you change an input).

Regardless, if you have some constructive criticism, I'm listening.

Wow, that is a really cool feature. Any chance of getting something similar for GGDT?

Yeah, I figure I'll do something like that for GGDT, but for GGDT it'd be much more complex (from a programming perspective, not user perspective) so it'll be a while before I can sort it all out in my mind and put it to code.

That's a pretty useful feature.

I don't know that I'll have cause to use it any time soon, as I'm not really a hybrid/combustion person, but if I ever get around to building my automatic (piston) hybrid, I can see that the feature would come in very handy, given that my predictions show that it would operate most reliably at close to the maximum practical "burst" pressure.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?
