Hello. I managed to reach the simulation step.
However, when I tried to launch simulation, the following error continuously occurred in Log console:
INFO s.U.i.SpisIO ! SpisIO.java:372 ! ERROR in LDLt decomposition in assembPrecontNonLinear =(some number…)
I am using SPIS-Propulsion-6.0.0-win64b.
Geometry that I made is a small box satellite, and the top of the satellite has a small circle which corresponds to the thrust exit plane.

Pop 6 is Thruster0Electrons(electron) : type electric_propulsion.SPT100CathodeElectronModel

Is this because of the wrong global parameter setting?
Thank you.
