Experimenter execute scenarios before replications.

Hello,

Our team is facing a situation when running long models on Experimenter, it takes a lot of time, so I asked if it was possible to run each scenario before running all replications, this way we could get partial results while the model is still running.

I got an answer that solved the problem (thank you @jason.lightfoot :)) but with a workaround that can be not very user friendly:
https://answers.flexsim.com/questions/93802/experimenter-run-scenarios-before-every-replicatio.html?childToView=93882#answer-93882

When running models via Experimenter, it always execute all replications from one scenario before running the next scenarios. We think it would be a good idea to have an option inside Experimenter, that switch the execution order from "executing all replications of one scenario first" to "execute one replication from each scenario before executing all replications".

Thanks!

We are in the process of redesigning the experimenter at the moment. One of the target features will be that you can "continue" an experiment, i.e. add more replications to various scenarios. This should fulfill your goal. You can initially run just one replication of each scenario, then narrow down and run more replications, add scenarios, etc. once you have a baseline of results.
