Elements in posfile POSCAR determine POTCAR elements #394

Open cmgtam opened 10 years ago

cmgtam commented 10 years ago

Element name in posfile's POSCAR overrides mast_pp_setup designation and elementmap The recipe may appear to have the correct element name, but the POTCAR file will be incorrect. For example, $structure posfile POSCAR_generic

begin elementmap X1 Mn end $end If POSCAR_generic has element La, not element Mn, listed on its species line, then the recipe directory will show up as Mn, but the POTCAR file will actually be for La.
