Hi,

can anyone observe issue using windcather system in the latest IES ve version?
it seem to be several issues
1- after finalize the space component ; if you do check the model ; windcather intersects the main body of the building whereas this was not an issue in the pervious issue , just run a test model to see if you get the same output ?
2- majority of the time after finalize the windcatcher ; the apache gives an error stated null spaces although I place it correctly as indicated in the guide ( this is not something I do now ) , please attempt to place several windcather and run the simulation by yourself.

I believe this is a software issue , and will need to be sorted , if I am missing somethohm , please let me know, but I would suggest you attempt couple of your tests sim before you comment unless you have not done so

Hi,

This was acknowledged and resolved in the last hotfix

ModelIT
Monodraught Windcatchers: Finalize component no longer creates intersections [ID-0076082]:
When placing Monodraught Windcatchers and finalizing the component, no intersections will be
created.
