Hope you're doing well, hoping to get some guidance on this if you had a minute.
I have 15MW turbine fst file that runs perfectly on Openfast. However when I run an fstf file that only contains this same turbine I get the following error:

I've been troubleshooting for a number of hours but can't narrow down the location of the problem. Happy to provide more context / file contents if needed. I've adjusted many parameters like the grid size and inflow wind modules but no improvement on the issue. Any input would be great.
