How are you? I am a master's student from the University of Maine, USA, working on floating wind turbine controls research. I am interested in using your simulation software in my work, but am having trouble debugging a particular issue.
I am running the default case from the Github - I generated wave data using the provided function with 0 elevation (still water condition) and generated a binary turbsim file similar to the example provided. I have attached the summary file below. All other inputs are the same as on the github. The simulation runs fine and is comparable to OpenFAST for as far as I can simulate; however, around 120 seconds into the simulation, I get the following error:
Lowest vertical interpolation point

Plotting the solution up to this point doesn't show any signs of numerical instability, and the large negative interpolation point is suspicious. Have you come across this issue before?
