Re: [ESPResSo-users] Maze Constraints

[Axel Arnold]

Hi!

The maze constraint is fairly old and I actually dont remember, who 
originally implemented it.

In any case, I am pretty sure that it simply fills a periodic simulation 
box, and therefore neither allows to have only just the bottom filled 
only, nor allows to fill only part of the box. If you need something 
like this, you will have to modify the code. In particular, you will 
then need to think about the surfaces of your maze, which because of the 
periodic boundary conditions are not implemented yet.

Regards,
Axel
