Answer:


Midas CIvil uses influence line concept for moving load analysis.

whereas
2) Moving load Tracer option will Trace and graphically display the vehicle loading condition (corresponding moving load case and location) that results in the maximum/minimum effect.

Also, The loading condition can be converted into a static loading by using MCT command shell. This is an extremely useful feature when we wish to find the static response of the particular loading condition that creates the maximum or minimum effect.
