= Introduction =
This tutorial, Module 4 of the TUFLOW SWMM tutorial dataset will demonstrate TUFLOW's in-bulitbuilt event management functionality. This powerful functionality runs multiple event combinations (e.g. magnitude, duration, temporal patterns, climate change) using a single set of control files, rather than creating a new set of control files for every event simulation. This tutorial demonstrates how event management can be used on a smaller scale, running only 6 models.<br>
The real power of event management is seen when running a model of a much greater size. For example, without implementing event management, a project requiring simulation of the following event combinations would require 144 TCF and bc_dbase files:
:*6 x Event Magnitude: 01%, 2%, 5%, 10%, 20% and 50% Annual Exceedance Probability (AEP)

<li>Save a copy of the '''bc_dbase_TS03_001.csv''' as '''bc_dbase_TS04_001.csv'''.
<li>Open the file and make the following updates to the 'Source' column. The '''AEP''' and '''DUR''' wildcards must be between the special character '''~''' to function as a variable. Note, columns E to I are to remain blank. The final '''bc_dbase_TS04_001.csv''' should look like this: <br>

=Advanced Looping Batch File (Optional)=
Looping batch files are a powerful tool to enable high volume simulation management with the least amount syntax, and subsequently manual effort. For example, the following looped batch file executed 1440 simulation using 15 lines of syntax!

==Check Sucessful Completion of Multiple Simulations==
Open '''_TUFLOW Simulations.log''' from the '''TUFLOW_SWMM_Module_04\TUFLOW\runs''' folder. Confirm 'Finished' is tagged next to the entry for each of the six simulations we executed. This log confirms the model simulation was completed.<br>

==Viewing Multiple Simulation Results==
===Load Results===
Open the simulation results in QGIS. When loading multiple simulations which include 1D results (all with the same object IDs), a two step load workflow is recommended to avoid filling the QGIS layer panel with duplicate 1D object entries.
<ol>
Line 178 ⟶ 181:
[[File:tuflow_plugin_tuflow_viewer.png]]<br>
<br>
<li> Open 1D and 2D results: Select File > 'Load Results'. Navigate to the '''TUFLOW\runs''' folder and select '''TS04_5m_~e1~_~e2~_001.tcf'''.
<li> When asked which simulation to load, select '''TS04_5m_01p_1hr_001'''.
<li> When asked 'Do you want to open result GIS layer?', select 'Yes'.
<li> After '''TS04_5m_01p_1hr_001''' has loaded, open the remaining result files:
* Select File > 'Load Results'. Navigate to the '''TUFLOW\runs''' folder and select '''TS04_5m_~e1~_~e2~_001.tcf'''.
* When asked which simulation to load, select all remaining results (except '''TS04_5m_01p_1hr_001''').
* When asked 'Do you want to open result GIS layer?', select 'No'. All theThe results will nowstill be loaded., Theythough arewill all be associated with the GIS objects loaded for the '''TS04_5m_01p_1hr_001''' simulation.
<li> In the QGIS Layers Panel, move the GIS vector (line and point) layers to the top of the list. This will ensure these layers are displayed above all othermesh result layers in the project.
