The powercurve currently expects the incoming attributes to be `power_kw` and `energy_kwh` (see [here](https://github.com/NREL/hive/blob/main/nrel/hive/resources/powercurve/normalized.yaml)). But, these should actually be `ratio_of_plug_power` and `battery_state_of_charge`. We should correct these in the default file...

Make default output directory more sensible for windows

2

On a windows machine when running the denver demo for the first time in a conda environment, the output directory gets set to the resource directory where hive is installed,...

Validate dispatcher valid_dispatch_states on input

1

I recently added this to the manhattan.yaml scenario file: ```yaml dispatcher: valid_dispatch_states: - idle - repositioning - reserve_base ``` The model ran without complaint but the true value for `reserve_base`...

Update yaml config serialization

1

At the end of a hive simulation, we dump the configuration as a yaml file into the outputs folder with [this method. ](https://github.com/NREL/hive/blob/1e83798c68c66fd35029621e0f95c15b701bd1d5/nrel/hive/config/hive_config.py#L171). Some of the outputs are getting written...

## summary A meta issue to keep track of the experimental refactor of the core of hive into rust. The current branch for all this work is [`explore-rust`](https://github.com/NREL/hive/tree/explore-rust). All work...

Update add/modify/remove sim methods to use safe version

3

PR #95 adds in new safe methods for adding/modifying/removing hive entities from the simulation state. Now, we need to go through and update the usage of the old methods to...

[Discussion] Improve state and event logging

1

For both state and event logs, at each time step, we[ log the reports](https://github.com/NREL/hive/blob/2220709fc90df31919bd10f313e5b89be9372d95/nrel/hive/reporting/handler/stateful_handler.py#L122) to a [log file](https://github.com/NREL/hive/blob/2220709fc90df31919bd10f313e5b89be9372d95/nrel/hive/reporting/handler/stateful_handler.py#L22) that we open at the start of the simulation. Each of these...

There are a few outdated / deprecated inputs left in the codebase: - geofence - demand forecast We should remove these so as to not confuse a new user.

Some things that would make hive reporting / logs easier for the end user: - vehicle logs should report state of charge and remaining range - break up state logs...

Update function signatures to use result type

1

Right now our functions that might fail mid-simulation have a signature that looks like: ```python def function_that_might_fail() -> Tuple[Optional[Exception], Optional[Type]]: ``` We could add in this [Result type](https://github.com/rustedpy/result) such that...
