Ram Model changes corrupt Ram Connection geometry

Problem Description

There is a problem with Ram Connection 12.0 integration with RAM SS (Ram Modeler version 15.08).

1.Take any RAM SS model
2.Go to Ram Connection
3.Make any change in RAM SS (add a column, delete a beam, change a member size, etc)
4.Reopen Ram Connection - changes in step 3 are not there.

Depending on the type of change you can get an error, e.g.
"Node [30]" does not exist. Error at N1: Initial node

When a connection was assigned to a node /member that was deleted.

The geometry may also looks all wacky (spider web) or all members can disappear.

Reason

This is a new problem being corrected for the next release of Ram Connection.

Solution

Update to the latest version of Ram Connection.

Alternatively, purge the model of the file.rcsx file and start over. To do this:

1. Rename the file.rss to file.zip.
2. Open the .zip archive.
3. Locate the file.rcsx file and delete it.
4. Rename the file back to file.rss and reopen it in Ram Manager. 

Or revert to Ram Connection 11.2.
