Problem with the number of category #4

By default, the ice is divided in 5 thickness categorie. In the restart files, everything depends on the number of categorie.

For now, since ww3 don't output anything in thickness categorie. I'm trying to set ncat = 0 in the namelist.

I get this error :

error : kitd incompatibility, remapping itd is not allowed for ncat =1, use kitd = 0 (delta function itd) wth kcatbound =0 or for columns configuration use kcatbound = -1.

The itd is the ice thickess distribution. kitd = 1 means a linear remaping itd approximation (I'm not sure what it is really). kitd = 0 means delta function itd approximation. I have no idea which one is better to use, but i'll go for kitd=0.
