Improved
-
- SHOTPlus™ excludes holes marked as 'Not Drilled' or 'Abandoned' from fragmentation predictions.

- SHOTPlus™ now correctly notifies users when Hole Type Tolerances are modified based on a BlastIQ™ Import.
- When importing tolerances from BlastIQ™, SHOTPlus™ now imports and modifies reporting tolerances - Collar XY, Underdrill, and Overdrill.
- Added information to the 'Export Tolerances' option when importing from BlastIQ™.
- Item count rounding setting now affects the item count sent to BlastIQ™.
- Item count rounding setting is now used for calculating loading designs.
- A message is shown when choosing 'Round to half package' option for item rounding that BlastIQ™ only supports whole numbers for item counts.
- Updated SHOTPlus™ DXF library. SHOTPlus™ can now export DXFs in the following formats:
- SHOTPlus™ Legacy Format;

- BlastIQ™ Plan Level Notes moved to the 'BlastIQ™ Blast Management' dialog.
- Charging rules not supported by the BlastIQ™ system no longer block exports to BlastIQ™ from SHOTPlus™ 2, 3.
- Updated error, warning, information, and confirmation icons.
- SHOTPlus™ will now 'batch' data when exporting to BlastIQ™, to support exporting large amounts of data without timeout issues.
- Increased the automatic timeout when exporting a plan to BlastIQ™ to 150 seconds, to support the export of large plans.
- SHOTPlus™ will now trim blank characters from Hole Type names on import.
- 'BlastIQ™ Blast Properties' renamed to 'BlastIQ™ Blast Management'.
Information
- The 'Title_HoleID' field exports the title of the blast, per the 'Blast Header Information', concatenated with HoleID.
- Excludes charging rules without conditions or charging rules with tables of a single defined length.
- Unsupported rules will not be exported to BlastIQ™ and will not be applied to holes in the BlastIQ™ system. Hole loaded with these rules in SHOTPlus™ prior to export will be treated as manually loaded in the BlastIQ™ system.
