In other words, you can't activate a thorn which provides multipatch at the same time as getting the domain from CoordBase. You have the Coordinates thorn active, which provides multipatch (or more specifically, it provides the aliased function MultiPatch_GetDomainSpecification), hence this error. You will need to remove Coordinates from your ActiveThorns. </div><div><br></div><div>At that point, it's possible that CTGamma will complain, because I think it requires some basic multipatch functionality. The thorn CTGamma/CartesianCoordinates is provided for this case, so if you run into problems after deactivating Coordinates, try activating CartesianCoordinates.</div><div><br></div><div>I attach an old parameter file which uses CTGamma on a Cartesian grid. I have not run this with the current version of the code, but it used to work at some point!</div></div><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
