$ loadcase lines consist of output directory, zone, X, Y, Z target coords, Horizontal angle (rotation about Z), Vertical angle (rotation about Y), Velocity, Optional Parameter Value, Optional Parameter Name
LH_1, LH_1, 162.957, -441.114, 536, 60, 0, 6.1, 5.82E-06,RHO

If the impactor is to be translated and rotated about Y or Z and, optionally, furnished a parameter value and corresponding parameter name, this format is applicable. Rotations will be applied to the impactor before it is translated. The centre of rotation is the impactor base coordinate.

Note on parameter specification : A parameter name and value may be specified for each loadcase. These are usually intended to furnish different mass values for different loadcases. This may be done by, for example, specifying a parameter for material density and the corresponding desired value

Note on 'Zone' field : Unlike other GENERAL types, GENERAL_TR_PARAMETER includes a zone field (2nd column) which defaults to directory name if left blank

Note on interactive editing : Interactive editing is currently not available for this build type
