I've written a new check_model_changes program (used to be called check_model_daq_changes) to additionally check for any IPC addition or removal.
If an IPC sender has been removed, the code gives the list running models which currently have receivers as a reminder that they should also be changed.
The code is designed to be ran between running "rtcds build" and "rtcds install" to catch any issues before the production files are overwritten.
If the list of DAQ channels which have been added/removed is long, the code defaults to showing the first ten channels. The --all argument gives the full list.
For example, after building the h1susitmx and h1isiitmx models on h1build:
