SFR dimension warning

[hntigkakis]

Hello.

I tried running one of my old scripts in FloPy 3.5.0, and I get the following warning when creating my SFR package (multiple warnings in fact):

WARNING: Unable to resolve dimension of ('gwf6', 'sfr', 'connectiondata', 'connectiondata', 'ic') based on shape "nconifno".

The script was developed in Flopy 3.4.3 and worked perfectly fine before upgrading to 3.5.0. I also noticed that I don't get the warning if I don't use any connection data. Did something change in the new version or am I misunderstanding something?

My connection data are in the form of connectiondata = [ [reach, upstream_reach, -downstream_reach] ] :

The one big change for 3.5.0 is that SFR reach numbers were renamed rno to ifno. To check if this is a bug, see if you can update

flopy/flopy/mf6/coordinates/modeldimensions.py

Line 595 in 02a2f91

or item[0] == "nconrno"

-                            or item[0] == "nconrno"
+                            or item[0] == "nconifno"

and re-run your script to see if it is resolved.

This should have been mentioned in the release notes, they have been updated.

It was done to accommodate corresponding ifno changes in mf6 which haven't made it into a release yet. But it seems ideal to support the old names for back-compatibility anyway
