[Users] AHFinderDirect test in cosmology

Hi all,

I'm trying to use AHFinderDirect to find the apparent horizon in the de
Sitter metric, implemented in the Exact thorn in comoving coordinates. I
tried a few things but cannot get it to work. Have someone tried something
similar, i.e. using the AHFD in cosmological spacetimes instead of BHs?
Below I attach a typical parfile I used

Thanks!
