Hello,

This is nothing to worry about - the node numbers in the dat file can be in any order, and they do not have to be continuous or ascending. This is also very common when the dat file has been generated by the Aqwa Workbench editor. You may find that the sequence of nodes 43-535 are somewhere else in Deck 1.
