"development status page"
The progress of the development of new features or repairs to previously reported issues, can now be viewed on the website. The status for each activity is displayed graphically on this page, depicting an estimated percentage of completion for each listed item. Development activity is not limited only to what is found on this new page however. There are usually more development actions in-progress than are publicly visible to website visitors. This new page may also be accessed from the support page.

"CLIENT WEB PAGES "
All clients will soon receive their own web page on the AzSubdivisions.com website. This will prove useful when a license file has been overwritten or misplaced and a fresh new one needs to be installed. When each client's page has been prepared, they will be notified individually and the link to their page will be provided.

"ASE 'SENTINEL' DESCRIBED IN DETAIL"
In response to requests by new clients, detailed information referencing the internal license management system used by ASE Civil, the 'Sentinel' system, has been provided on the website. A link to the literal description can be found in the 'Features' page. Within that page, a link to a flowchart gives a visual description of the logic involved in managing licenses for ASE Civil.

"automatic pad definition"
Finished pads in ASE have previously required the individual selection of each Polyline and the use of 'APPARENT INTERSECTION' 'OSNAP's of both curb reference points. However, new geometric analysis algorithms have recently been developed and integrated that give ASE Civil the ability to calculate the intersections between two lines, two arcs or between a line and an arc. This can be done even if the objects are not present in the drawing and even if the geometry does not intersect explicitly. The new functionality references the data contained in the Base Map Control file. This new geometric analysis engine will pave the way for many new functional capabilities for future versions of ASE Civil. Development and testing of some of these new features are already well under way and will be integrated in January 2014, such as automated water and sewer services creation and stationing.
Alpha testing of the new feature yielded definition and labeling of 364 ASE Pads in 90 seconds! Soon ASE will provide the capability of actually creating the Polyline objects used for pad definition, based on user-specified lot setback parameters. This will accelerate ASE's design productivity far beyond that of any subdivision automation available anywhere in the world.

"ASE CIVIL 2014: BUILD FAILURES"
A message from the Developer:
Virtually all of the pre-release issues found in ASE Civil 2014 during final beta testing have now been addressed, but these repairs have not yet been uploaded to the website for download and installation. Despite the apparent stability of the 2014 version currently available for download, it still contains the issues that were recently addressed.
The .NET assemblies were successfully repaired and re-compiled.
However, after finishing all the repairs and updates that were required to elevate ASE 2014 to production status then re-compiling all the Visual Lisp source code, during testing I discovered that AutoCAD is generating error after the compile process, resulting in virtually empty executable files. Consequently, none of the re-compiled functions are defined.
This anomaly is something I've never seen before. However, I'm confident the problem will be resolved quickly and testing will resume for ASE Civil 2014 very soon. Unfortunately for the time being, I'm currently unable to continue updating or distribution of this latest version of the software.
Please accept my apology for this brief delay.

"ASE Civil 2012: FinAL UPDATE"
Build M4B04.1628 marks the final published version of ASE Civil 2012. Assuming there are no reports of critical errors which create system instability or render AutoCAD, Civil 3D or ASE Civil unusable, there will be no further repairs or enhancements to this annual version of the application. All future development efforts will no be focused on ASE Civil 2014 and ASE Civil 2014Z
