Hello Tony,

I guess the best way of doing it within the framework of generic SPICE commands is to create an include file that simply remaps the parameter arguments.

Example this works:

STEP1: REMAP
*-------------------------------REMAP of PARAMETER ORDER SNIPPET----
.SUBCKT LT1086-5_KICAD GND IN OUT
X1 GND OUT IN LT1086-5
.ENDS
*-------------------------------------------------------------------

STEP2: Use remapping reference name within the schematic capture name.

STEP3: Include remapping file as a .include command within the schematics going forward. Example .include "myRemaps.cir".

I am wondering if we should somehow create a universal master "FixupFile" to include that all Kicad users constantly refine.

One thing that caught my attention with LTSPICE is that you can have a file for library included in your netlist. This file does not have to be stored locally it can exist on a HTTP server. LTSPICE will automatically fetch it for the simulation. So its possible to have this fixup file on the Kicad website for everyone. This would then allow everyone to get the most updated fix-ups.

I like SPICE sequence order attribute. It should not take the team long to impliment this generic feature. I just looked at the PSpice netlister code for Kicad I think I can add the necessary attribute/hack. Possibly for now just pull the correct parameter sequence from one of the generic part property attributes that each user is free to add.
