Too many atom sorting bins again...

Submitted by jwarnett on Thu, 04/21/2011 - 18:08

Hey

I've seen a previous post about the error 'too many atom sorting bins', but unfortunately it didn't allow me to solve the problem.

I assume its something to do with my neighbor line, or setting sizes for regions (although I have seen large imported meshes so I don't think it can be the latter. I have tried to find the issue by reading the documentation, but again came across the same error. Attached is my code at the bottom if anyone would be so kind as to have a look?

When I have neighbor 0.05 I have the error 'too many atom sorting bins'. Fine so increase the number...
When I have neightbor 0.1 I have the error 'Failed to allocate -818737484 bytes for array atom:binhead', so again to do with atom bins. Can someone please point me in the right direction.

Thanks

Jay

Dear,
You have selected "units si", so please use all SI values, you cant use cm. For example value of g is 9.8m/s^2 not 980m/s^2.
Please read doc pages for units command.
