You can test it using the instructions in the User Manual. https://flo-2d.sharefile.com/d-s991407698594009a

JJ, what we need to do is change the way we write the realtime rainfall data. Right now, when you export the GDS data, it always exports raincell.dat. We need a switch to exclude that file. We only want to write it when we actually need to write it.

I suggest we default the option to never write it.

@FLO-2DNoemi Noemi, We need to get FLO-2D to run with only the rainfall.hdf5. This is the file that QGIS exports. Right now, it only runs with raincell.dat. If raincell.dat is missing, flopro.exe writes a blank version of it and gives an error. It doesn't read the binary file.

Here is a test project. https://flo-2d.sharefile.com/d-s8825d5a317c46bd8
