Meaningless error/ warning message "can this be?" in PSSECT program #3

Hi there! Thanks for making Perple_x :)

I've run into a problem when running PSSECT, looks like the message is coming from this line here:

https://github.com/jadconnolly/Perple_X/blob/238fc8063eacec83d96f2de00598a291c613fd8a/src/psect.f#L645

Just wondering if the error could be made more meaningful. Currently I'm not sure what the message means!

Cheers

you're welcome! the message indicates nodal coordinates at which there is no assigned phase assemblage. It's not a serious error because in general the grid is not fully populated, what's peculiar is that the pointer has the wrong value, 0 rather than the value of parameter k2. I added the message (years ago) to remind me to look for the reason. if you have a calculation that generates a lot of those msg's and can send me the input/option file you used i'd be happy to look at what's going on.
