[Users] error after activating IllinoisGRMHD and VolumeIntegrals_GRMHD

Dear Chia-Hui,

them ?

Yes, though this should be simple. I would expect that simply replacing all
references to VolumeIntegrals by references to VolumeIntegrals_GRMHD will
fix the problem.

Great to hear. You will need to modify the parameter file so that the AMR
grid structures are properly centered on each neutron star initially.

> Can I consult for your suggestion that which method would be more
efficient and proper without tracking problem? Or there are other possible
solution?

I am unsure what advice would be best. You have told me is that the code
exits unexpectedly. To help diagnose, I will need to know the exact version
of the ETK you are using and the error message.
