I was having a discussion with a colleague about how daylighting simulations work. When I run several daylighting simulations with Radiance (In DesignBuilder) i get different result each time. I read somewhere (forgot where) that this is because of a randomization in the calculation process of daylighting simulations. Could anyone explain to me how this works? Is this randomization also a reflection of reality or more a result of being unable to accurately represent reality (so far)? I would like to explain this to my colleagues in fairly simple terminology so I do not have constant discussions with them as to why the results are different. Simply saying: "thats just how daylighting simulations work" isn't enough of an answer for either of us, so please let me know what you know!

That did the trick, will not forget to make design day schedules for my temp schedules!

Interesting that it doesn't create an error with you. Did yoy check the Schedules tab where the Schedules themselves are

I was still working on the model so I'm not sure if it is in there yet. If it is than it should have the same name.
