ERROR 13018 - Total particle allocation exceeds current limit.

Description

The total number of particles across all groups exceeds the configured maximum. The default limit is 10,000,000.

Suggestions

Reduce the number of seeded particles (refer to the Particle Seeding section of the TUFLOW FV Sediment Transport and Particle Tracking User Manual) or increase the limit using Maximum Particles == in the particle tracking control file.

Note that the maximum number of particles that can be allocated is limited by the available memory on the system. If the limit is increased, ensure that sufficient memory is available to run the simulation.
