Engine

Launch: Load the simulation engine associated with the current database. See database settings to learn how the simulation executable is located and named.

If the engine is already loaded, will unload it (terminate the process).

Run: Once the simulation is loaded, the Run button can be used to start the simulation.

Pause: Once the simulation is running, pause will freeze the simulation (HLA thread will continue running but nothing will be pooled)

Stop: Terminates the simulation.

Detach: Unload the simulation engine and properly unlink the shared-memory.

Snapshot: will immediately dump all the current memory to a file for later restore.

Restore: call the Restore manager window.

CIGI Design Mode: switch ON or OFF the CIGI connection with third party IG. See here for more explanation.
