It appears that the error for "There is no liquidity to complete this transaction (code: 1114)" is a message that occurs whenever amountOut does not pass the minOut check. This confused me for a long while because I was sometimes able to reproduce this "insufficient liquidity" error and did not realise it was directly dependant on the requested minOut parameter, because I thought the amount of liquidity would not be related to minOut.
When this check fails and there are no more ticks of liquidity available I think this is a good error to display. But when there is clearly enough liquidity remaining in the pair this message is very confusing and unhelpful because it does not let me know that if I adjusted my minOut value the swap could be successful. Something like "Requested swap does not return more than minimum amount out specified at this time" would be helpful (depends on minOut and market movements): even for the case of not enough liquidity left to complete the transaction, because this message would let the user know that if they reduced their minOut parameter to 0 then they would be able to extract out the last remaining available liquidity of the token pair.
- the error claims "no liquidity" when there is clearly liquidity existing and enough liquidity to complete the trade

What this actually looks like in some scenarios on the front end:
When requesting 0.9 STK from a tick pair that contains 50 STK of liquidity I get the error: "There is no liquidity to complete this transaction"

If I adjust the minimum amount out (using slippage tolerance control to 50%) the transaction is able to pass (not intended UX, separate UX issue to fix the minimum amount out calculation on the front end https://github.com/duality-labs/duality-web-app/issues/214):
