Global parameters#

This block, called &RUN_PARAMS, contains the run global control parameters. These parameters are now briefly described. More thorough explanations will be given in dedicated sections of the wiki.

Variable name, syntax, default value	Fortran type	Description
`cosmo=.false.`	`logical`	Activate cosmological supercomoving cooordinates and computes the expansion factor
`pic=.false.`	`logical`	Activate Particle-In-Cell solver
`sink=.false.`	`logical`	Activate sink particles
`clumpfind=.false.`	`logical`	Activate the clump finder
`tracer=.false.`	`logical`	Use Monte Carlo tracer particles
`unbind=.false.`	`logical`	Activate the particle unbinding for clumps
`make_mergertree=.false.`	`logical`	Make merger trees
`poisson=.false.`	`logical`	Activate Poisson solver for self-gravity
`hydro=.false.`	`logical`	Activate hydro or MHD solver.
`rt=.false.`	`logical`	Activate radiative transfer using CPU-based M1 solver. This solver works on the AMR grid.
`aton=.false.`	`logical`	Activate radiative transfer using GPU-based M1 solver. This solver works only on unigrid at `levelmin`.
`verbose=.false.`	`logical`	Activate verbose mode.
`cost_weighting=.true.`	`logical`	Load balancing based on computational cost, not memory. This is rather expensive in term of memory usage. For memory limited runs, using `cost_weighting=.false.` is better.
`nrestart=0`	`integer`	Output file number from which the code loads backup data and resumes the simulation, The default value, zero, is for a fresh start from the beginning (time=0).
`nrestart_quad=0`	`integer`	Restart with double precision Hilbert keys. Must be equal to `nrestart`. Default value is 0.
`nstepmax=1000000`	`integer`	Maximum number of coarse time step. This can be used to terminate the simulation after a fixed amount of main steps.
`ncontrol=1`	`integer`	Frequency of screen output for control lines (to stdout), usually redirected into a log file.
`nremap=0`	`integer`	Frequency of call, in units of coarse time steps, for the load balancing routine, for MPI runs only. The default value, zero, means never. Load balancing is a slow operation, so use as high a value as possible.
`ordering="hilbert"`	`character(len=128)`	Cell ordering method used in the domain decomposition of the grid, for MPI runs only. Possible values are `hilbert`, `planar` and `angular`.
`nsubcycle=2,2,2,2,2,2,`	`integer array`	Number of fine level sub-cycling steps within one coarser level time step. Each value in the array corresponds to a given level of refinement, starting from the coarse grid at `levelmin` up to the finest level at `levelmax`. `nsubcycle(1)=1` means that `levelmin` and `levelmin+1` are synchronized. To enforce single time stepping across the whole AMR hierarchy, you need to set `nsubcycle=1,1,1,1,1,1,1,`
`static=.false.`	`logical`	Activate full static mode (RT post processing)
`static_dm=.false.`	`logical`	Activate static mode for DM particles only (isolated initial conditions relaxation)
`static_stars=.false.`	`logical`	Activate static mode for star particles only (isolated initial conditions relaxation)
`remap_pscalar=ndim+3,ndim+4,...,nvar`	`integer array`	Mapping for the passive scalars and non-thermal pressures. Value indicates in which variable the scalar from the restart should be loaded. [0 = ignore this scalar in the restart output, -N = do not read but initialise ivar=N to 0, N = read and initialise ivar=N from the restart output]. For example `remap_pscalar=-6,0,7,8,9` translates to: do not read first restart var but initialise ivar=6 to 0, skip second restart var, read ivar=[8,9,10] from the restart snapshot and store it in the current ivar=[7,8,9].
