This section describes changes to the simulation objects.

On the Aquifer object, the Pumped Flow slot was added to the list of linkable dispatch slots and converted to a Multi Slot. This better mirrors the Pumped Flow slot on the Groundwater Storage object. In addition, proposed links were added to the Smart Linker.

The dispatch method names for nearly all objects were modified to be more readable. For example, a common reservoir dispatch method is now called “Solve given Inflow, Outflow”. When you first load a model saved with output values in version 8.0, no dispatch information will be available. Rerun the model to generate the dispatch information. Also, diagnostic output messages listing dispatch method names will change. Otherwise, there should be no numerical differences with this change.
