[Request] Option in TRACK to output one file per observation point when using onetable

Open fsoubelet opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

Hello,

Currently, when performing tracking with TRACK and setting additional observation points with OBSERVE, one has the following options:

  • Setting onetable to false (default), one gets a file per particle per observation point, which quickly amounts to a lot of files to parse.
  • Setting onetable to true, in which case one gets a single file in which the data is given as (considering one point was given through OBSERVE):
all turns for particle 1 at start of machine
all turns for particle 1 at point given through OBSERVE
   .
   .
   .
all turns for particle n at start of machine
all turns for particle n at point given through OBSERVE

This format is quite unconvenient to process. Would it be possible to add an option / flag to ouput one file per observation point?
