How I can save my work in the simulation?

Hello,

> I have some questions.

please open separate questions for separate problems ([1], point 5).
Let's leave this thread for save stuff (according to the title).
Please open separate questions for the other topics:
- How can I record the simulation for long periods of time?
- How can I create surfaces or a pack of spheres on an inclined plane?
Provide more information to make the questions meaningful [1].

> How can I save the simulation I have and use it again later at another point in the simulation, within the same code?

There are many options and approaches, please be (much) more specific what the use case should be.
What does "later at another point in the simulation" mean?
What does "within the same code" mean?

Some options / approaches:
- save to file / save to memory?
- one simulation / separate simulations?
- saving python stuff?
- save entire simulation, or just e.g. particle positions?
- ...?

Cheers
Jan

Hello,

I change my question;

How can I save the simulation I have and use it again later at another point in the simulation, within the same code?

In my simulation I have a surface on which particles roll. I want to place a wall before rolling the simulation to collect the particles and then remove the wall so they can roll down the surface.

How can I save the simulation before and after when i delete the wall? How is the best way?

Thank you.

I see no usage of "save the simulation", I do not understand "use it again later at another point in the simulation".

Does your simulation in pseudocode look like this?
###
placeTheWall()
collectParticles()
removeTheWall()
