[FLASH-BUGS] a problem in the unit of active particles (massive)

Hello,
I have a question about the unit of active particles (massive),
In the user-guide, the equation shown in the part "Cosmological
variable-timestep leapfrog" shows that "A= -2 * a_dot / a", where a is the
scale factor.
I copy the source code below (from the file pt_advancLeapfrog_cosmos.F90),
alpha = 2*Hubble/sOld * sqrt(OmegaM/sOld-OmegaCurv+OmegaL*sOld**2)
dotalpha = 2*Hubble**2 * (-3*OmegaM + 2*OmegaCurv*sOld)/sOld**3
1. there is a "sign" difference between the equation in the user-guide and
the code.
2. there seems an additional factor of 2 in dotalpha. It should be
"dotalpha = Hubble**2 * (-3*OmegaM + 2*OmegaCurv*sOld)/sOld**3". Am I
correct?
Thank you for your time!
Best regards,
Congyao
