Backwards-only tracking

Post by yli » 17 Mar 2021, 15:50

Hi Michael,

The chaos_map command implements a combined f-b tracking. I wonder how to get a backwards-only tracking without manually flipping the length of elements over. Especially the fringe field needs to implemented properly.

Is it easy to add an "backwards" option in the "track" command to do it?

Best regards,

Yongjun,

The run_setup command has a back_tracking parameter. If you set it to 1, it will perform backward tracking.
