Description
In the MOOC someone asked me about using LevelSpace with System Dynamics Models. I didn't expect it to work, but it seems to fail in a weird way. To reproduce:
- Opened Parent Model Example
- Clicked Setup and then Create a Child Model
- Chose Wolf-Sheep Predation (System Dynamics) from the Models Library
---nothing is displayed and no window pops up - ls:models is [0]
- However, if you go to the LevelSpace menu bar and Click Edit Open Models, Wolf-Sheep is there, and I can bring up its code
It seems like either it shouldn't load at all and present an error message or load correctly.

Research direction
Reproduce the failure with Parent Model Example: use Setup, Create a Child Model, and Wolf-Sheep Predation (System Dynamics) from the Models Library. Compare the empty ls:models result with the model shown under LevelSpace > Edit Open Models. Done means the model either opens and displays correctly or produces a clear error.
