  • PondPack Engine Fatal Error for 'Scenario' Element Type "The maximum dimension exceeds limitation 32767"

    Working in PondPack and I just finished setting up my model. On my first run I got the following: I don't know what this error means. I deleted and re-setup the scenario but it didn't change. This is a large project and don't want to start over.
