No observation points = No run - D-Flow Flexible Mesh - Delft3D
intro story D-Flow FM
D-Flow Flexible MeshD-Flow Flexible Mesh (D-Flow FM) is the new software engine for hydrodynamical simulations on unstructured grids in 1D-2D-3D. Together with the familiar curvilinear meshes from Delft3D 4, the unstructured grid can consist of triangles, pentagons (etc.) and 1D channel networks, all in one single mesh. It combines proven technology from the hydrodynamic engines of Delft3D 4 and SOBEK 2 and adds flexible administration, resulting in:
An overview of the current developments can be found here. The D-Flow FM - team would be delighted if you would participate in discussions on the generation of meshes, the specification of boundary conditions, the running of computations, and all kinds of other relevant topics. Feel free to share your smart questions and/or brilliant solutions!

No observation points = No run
If I do not use two observation points my run does not pass from the Initialization stage part VI!!!
It simple gets frozen there and does not run at all.
After struggling with that, I thought this was a bug.
Later on, I found that the manual says that at least two observation points are needed. This is a bit weird!! Why is this??
It also says that when defining cross sections, two cross sections should be defined. This is also weird, although it seems that a single cross section works fine. Am I correct?
These are just small details, but a bit confusing for a beginner who passed one day figuring out this weird restriction!!
Thanks,
Alexis

Hi Alexis,
I agree it's weird. This is one of the historical artifacts that needs to be removed. Unfortunately it does not have a priority.

Hi,
I know this is a very late post...... but what I have noticed is that if you run the batch file created using Dash Board....you don't need observation points.
