Executing Multiple Runs in Parallel

PSCAD v4.5 introduced the ability to run multiple simulation projects in parallel, which is dependent on creating independent case files.

Can I parallelly execute using the multiple run capability of a single case/project? I want to be able to perform a sweep of simulations in parallel without having to setup several individual cases files with one variable changed.

Dear Will

Please follow this link that shows how to run multiple simulation models in the same time. In fact, this feature is limited to run upto 5 models.

Thanks for the response, however, I'm interested in particularly extending this ability into something similar to execute multiple runs of the same case in parallel, so I can sweep a particular variable over a range. I can accomplish this by saving multiple identical copies of the case file at this point and operating them independently, but this isn't super sustainable, since any changes to my base case will need to re-saved over the multiple copies of the case.

This feature would be very helpful for many studies which is why I would be grateful as well if you would action this request at your earliest convenience.
