Metalicity configuration in dat.10 input file #23

Open matg41 opened 2 hours ago

matg41 commented 2 hours ago

Hello I am using your wonderful program to simulate open star clusters. One issue I encountered is that in a region I investigated, two clusters with different origins and metallicities are merging together. Is there a way to provide the algorithm with a dat.10 file that includes an estimated metallicity for each star? Thank you for your attention. Feel free to let me know if you need any further adjustments!

Dear matg41,

thanks for using our code. Unluckily, our code has a single metallicity for all the stars in the cluster. We are working on a version that will do that in the future but as of now, this is still not supported in the main version.

I leave the issue open in case you have any further questions.

Best regards, Francesco
