=== Clean TUFLOW Control Files ===
In the process of converting a model, the <u>[[Convert_TUFLOW_Model_GIS_Format |Convert TUFLOW Model GIS Format]]</u> processing tool adds commands to the TUFLOW control files created by XPSWMM. While these control files contain most of the essential commands, they typically lack sufficient information to enable the mode to run smoothly. Additionally, these files are often not neatly structured. To ensure acontain functionalunecessary and/or easilyoutdated readable mode,commands. itIt is recommended to 'clean up' the TUFLOW control files. Thisbefore canrunning bethe done by:simulation.

Additionally, these files are often not neatly structured. To ensure a functional and easily readable mode, it is recommended to 'clean up' the TUFLOW control files. This can be done by:
:* Adding in commands required to execute the model. For example, <font color="blue"><tt>Solution Scheme </tt></font> <font color="red"><tt>== </tt></font> <font color="black"><tt> HPC </tt></font> <font color="green"><tt> ! Heavily Parallelised Compute, uses adaptive timestepping</tt></font>.<br>
:* Removing unnecessary commands.
