[FLASH-USERS] Can't find ignored parameter

Aaron,

You are using the multigamma EOS, which as far as I know does not have a "gamma" parameter, but relies on the gammas initialized on the grid (which may vary from place to place).

However, it appears that some unit is looking for the gamma parameter anyway... perhaps the Simulation unit itself or some file you have included?

You can do a search through the source files that are in your object directory to see which call to RuntimeParameters_get is trying to find gamma.

Best,

John ZuHone

(Currently they have identical properties because I intend to assign a different resistivity to each.)  However, I am getting a puzzling error in which the EOS gamma value is first ignored and then the simulation aborts because it can't find it.
