#1053: CarpetIOHDF5: it doesn't honor out3D_every parameter ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: bmundim | Owner: eschnett Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Carpet | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: CarpetIOHDF5 out3D_every ----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
Comment (by eschnett):
I am happy to change the behaviour again, if only since this simplifies the implementation significantly.
Of course, people specifying "out_every = 1000" will then basically never receive any output. It can be quite frustrating if one is learning AMR, runs a simulation for a few days, and receives no output, and no explanation whatsoever.
The variables storing the last output iteration are checkpointed and recovered. I just see that these may accidentally be re-initialised after recovery -- moving CarpetIOASCIIInit from basegrid to initial may help.
