Today we fixed several bugs in AquaDraft. We apologize for any inconvenience these may have caused.
What Was Fixed
① Light Stand Width Now Follows the Cabinet Size
Previously, the arch-style light stand was always sized for a 120 cm tank, even when you selected a 60 cm or 90 cm cabinet — making the scene look off.
With this fix, the light stand width automatically adjusts to match the cabinet width. Spotlight positions also slide proportionally, so every tank size looks natural.
② Floor Equipment Now Repositions When You Change the Cabinet Size
Floor-placed equipment such as external filters is supposed to auto-position beside the cabinet, but changing the cabinet size mid-layout left positions unchanged — causing overlap or gaps.
With this fix, floor equipment positions are automatically recalculated whenever you change the cabinet width.
③ Floor Load Calculation Corrected to Match Building Standards
The previous calculation divided total weight by the cabinet footprint area (about 0.18 m² for a 60 cm unit), which displayed “457 kg/m²” — triggering a red warning — even for a typical 60 cm tank at 82 kg.
Japan’s Building Standards Act residential floor live load (1,800 N/m² ≈ 180 kg/m²) is evaluated per 1 m². Because loads spread through joists and beams in real floor structures, using 1 m² as the reference unit is the correct approach.
Revised formula:
- Floor load (kg/m²) = Total weight ÷ 1 m²
- Reference limit: 180 kg/m² (Building Standards Act — residential rooms)
With this fix, a 60 cm tank at 82 kg total now shows “82 kg/m²” — correctly within the safe range.
④ Warning Indicator Moved to the Correct Field
Previously, exceeding the floor load limit turned the “Total Weight” figure red — confusing users who wondered why a lightweight tank showed a warning.
With this fix, the warning color now appears directly on the “Floor Load” value.
- Red: exceeds reference (180 kg/m²) → consider reinforcing or distributing the load
- Yellow: ≥80% of reference → recommended to double-check
- Normal: no issue
