morpheuskibbe is on a distinguished road
OK so i wrote some code. The idea is to apply a load and them move it with time. The applying a load part works fine but the moving part doesn't

Project file is attached, you can see the code blocks (each is separate so i just suppress them) specifically the code that is failing to move over time is the below. Does anyone know why its not working.

! Commands inserted into this file will be executed just prior to the ANSYS SOLVE command.

! Active UNIT system in Workbench when this object was created: Metric (mm, kg, N, s, mV, mA)
! NOTE: Any data that requires units (such as mass) is assumed to be in the consistent solver unit system.
! See Solving Units in the help system for more information.
! Create heat function on global CS (0)
