Currently simsolid supports Forces and moments are applied on spots  on the closest part face from the specified location specified in each .csv file when the spot is in circular shape by specifying 

X,Y,Z,Fx,Fy,Fz,Mx,My,Mz,Diameter,Load case  50,50,50,100,0,0,0,0,0,2,load_1 50,10,50,0,100,0,0,0,0,5,load_2

Please request a new feature  to the development team when the spot is not circular in shape  to apply forces and moment when multiple subcases are involved 

 Part id or spot id can be optional

the user specifies as below in csv format

PART ID, SPOT ID,X,Y,Z,Fx,Fy,Fz,Mx,My,Mz,SPOT LABEL

2435.2,2487,-2218,-1242,100,0,0,15,0,25,REAR PAD

Its a tedious process when more than 50 loads are involved for a given time point/ load case . this becomes more difficult when the  load cases are more than 100

thank you
