Simple Modeling Issues

[mgradillas]

Hi Antonello, I am on my second week of trying to run a simple model with morpho and still have had no success. I first started with my own very simple model and after following the wiki, online sources and referencing the templates, am still unable to get results. It's not been possible to troubleshoot because I do not know exactly what many of the components are doing. Here are the latest issues that occur both with my simple model and with the rabbit template:

morpho_run_inx - When i try to run it, my InDesign opens up - i can get with IT to see what is happening here but need to know what the component is supposed to be doing. The note on the template says "open ENVImet spaces".

morpho_run_simlulation - When I run it it starts off but no results populate folders. The terminal says things are OK but then the last comment is "exception ERangeError in module envicore_console.exe at 000000000001903D. Range check error.

Is there something simple I am missing and if so, where can I find documentation to help me out.

Thank you,
Madeline

Hi @mgradillas, the error message is not user-friendly but it is because of:

• The height of 3D plants is greater than the domain height.
  Increase the number of cells on Z direction to fix it.

Hi Antonello,

I have a question regarding modeling in Rhino and importing the model through the Morpho plugin. I’m trying to build a semi-open structure with plants placed underneath it. However, when I import the model, the plants are appearing on top of the structure instead of beneath it. Do you have any suggestions or solutions to resolve this issue in my modeling process?
