dev version SeaState.dat example file parameter setting problems and HydroDyn_ParaseInput: Error

[OMGTaylor0814]

Bug description

When I used Dev Version's FAST.FARM to simulate, I experienced a lot of modifications. It mainly compares through the Modules/Hydrodyn/HD_5MW_OC4SEMI_WAVESWN folder under the dev branch.Hydropyn.dat file. But always encounter the following problems:

Farm_Initialize:T1:Farm_InitFAST:FWrap_Init:FAST_InitializeAll:HydroDyn_Init:HydroDyn_ParaseInput:
 Error parsing Simple hydrodynamic coefficients table row 1
 T2:Farm_InitFAST:FWrap_Init:FAST_InitializeAll:HydroDyn_Init:HydroDyn_ParaseInput:Error parsing
 Simple hydrodynamic coefficients table row 1
 T3:Farm_InitFAST:FWrap_Init:FAST_InitializeAll:HydroDyn_Init:HydroDyn_ParaseInput:Error parsing
 Simple hydrodynamic coefficients table row 1
 T4:Farm_InitFAST:FWrap_Init:FAST_InitializeAll:HydroDyn_Init:HydroDyn_ParaseInput:Error parsing
 Simple hydrodynamic coefficients table row 1
 T5:Farm_InitFAST:FWrap_Init:FAST_InitializeAl

Expected behavior I have reviewed a lot of information, but there is no introduction to the grid in the seatate. dat file. It seems that this module is still in the process of improvement and development. However, in the new version of the farm, if CompSeaSt is not used, CompHydro cannot be used, and I cannot calculate hydrodynamic results. I want to know how to use the grid and how to resolve any error messages encountered.

Dear @OMGTaylor0814,

You cannot expect complete documentation and tests if you are using the dev branch. I would generally suggest using the main branch, unless you are experienced with OpenFAST and have a specific reason to be using work in progress from the dev branch.

The specific error you are referring to appears to be related with the format of your HydroDyn file. As with any input file processing error, I would enable the Echo option to debug.

Best regards,
