hi Ian,

many thanks for the parameter file. this allowed me to go a little further (i was missing CoordBase::boundary_shiftout_z_lower = 1 and CoordBase::boundary_shiftout_z_upper = 1).
however, i'm still getting the following error:

ERROR from host meurglysIII process 0
 while executing schedule bin (none), routine (no thorn)::(no routine)
 in thorn Carpet, file ./Cactus/arrangements/Carpet/Carpet/src/SetupGH.cc:2512:
 -> There are not enough ghost zones for the desired spatial prolongation order on map 0, refinement level 0.  With a spatial prolongation order of 5, you need at least 3 ghost zones.

i'm setting:

Carpet::prolongation_order_space        = 5
Carpet::prolongation_order_time         = 2

driver::ghost_size_x                 = 3
driver::ghost_size_y                 = 3
driver::ghost_size_z                 = 0

i'm guessing that in the example you provided things worked because you only had one grid? is there any way of doing this with more inner levels?

Hi,

I have never tried to do this with mesh refinement, no.  This might be a limitation in Carpet, because perhaps it tries to prolongate with the same order in every direction.
