@gertsevv was trying to convert a 3.24 model where ss_trans had an "array bound exceeded" error and didn't write the ss_new files. Easier than digging into the error was to run using -stopph -1 which allowed those files to get written without getting the error (which may have been in writing the report file). The ss_new files were able to run without error in the current 3.30.
Therefore I think it makes sense to update the guidance as in this PR to use -stopph -1 by default when using ss_trans. Hopefully there aren't that many 3.24 models that will need to be converted, but I'm sure there are more out there.
@chantelwetzel-noaa, let me know if this change looks OK or feel free to ask for changes.
