Fusion won't plot land and sea at same time

ingesting land and sea with...
simple script:
download,http://weather.cod.edu/digatmos/sao/@Y@ ... urface.dat
download,http://www.atmos.albany.edu/weather/dat ... rface2.dat
ingest,d:\digatm\data\surf*.dat

Then hitting the plot button ... only land stations plot (unlike DAWS and DA2000). After plot, I get a "encountered an error:file not found" box.

BTW, am I correct ... by installing version main release "a" then doing only last patch "0.6e2?"

I had to carry over digatmos.pri file from DAWS (missing).
I also had to redraw and save maps, as maps from DAWS cause plots to be in wrong places. (no problem, just an observation).

Yup, all my surface scripts fail because of this `encountered an error:file not found` error.

I wasn`t too sure where in the scripts it was failing, but it may well be the buoy/sea plotting.

As I use DAWS mainly for surface analysis scripts, this means Fusion is a no go for me. Hope Tim can find a fix for this asap.

Wally, I just checked your script, well actually this script for 22Z:

download,http://weather.cod.edu/digatmos/sao/@Y@ ... urface.dat
download,http://www.atmos.albany.edu/weather/dat ... rface2.dat
ingest,c:\digatm\data\surf*.dat
product,plf,0
export,c:\us\latest.gif

and this was the result:

I got them to plot together by setting the time selection to all at the surface instead of 1 hour. I don't know why this makes a difference but it does. If you have to shut down fusion this will need to be reset as it defaults back to 1 hour on restart.

I'm not getting the error message when I run the script. So maybe something was missed in a patch??

Orthographic saved maps in DA WS are flipped vertically and rotated in Fusion. Mercator is a major mess as well lol

I'm using Fusion v0.6e2, and I don't think I missed any in-between patches, but I'm not 100 percent sure on that.
