GHS Explanation

[bateaudemoi]

I am currently working on a concept design for a small tug. I am a student and I am very new to GHS. I modeled my hull in Rhino and exported a geometry file and a part maker file. The geometry file runs fine and includes the hull and superstructure.
My goal is to add several tanks through part maker commands before running a stability analysis.
I am having a lot of trouble understanding how the file types work. I believe that I can add the tanks in a part maker file and then run it to update the geometry however I cannot figure out how exactly to run such a file or how to create a “run file”.
Any clarification would be greatly appreciated. I’m sorry if this is a painful read for you GHS pros!
