Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

I am modelling multiple buildings (67 in total) in Rhino and I am having error for some of them, in particular a few buildings that are titled in a certain angle (most of them are shoeboxes with 0 degrees).

The following error appears:

** Severe ** checkSubSurfAzTiltNorm: Outward facing angle of subsurface differs more than 90.0 degrees from base surface.
** ~~~ ** Subsurface="RETAIL_SRF_3_GLZ_0_GLZP_0" Tilt = 90.0 Azimuth = 262.8
** ~~~ ** Base surface="RETAIL_SRF_3" Tilt = 90.9 Azimuth = 61.8

Initially I created the geometry for this buildings by creating polylines from lower left corner, turned into a surface and extruded. secondly, I copied from a zero degree shoebox and tilted it, and finally I copied one of the tilted building that was working to use as base for the ones that were giving the error. None of these approaches seems to solve the error. Any ideas of what to do?

PS: If it is not clear, I can submit some images to illustrate or ask permission to see if I can share the model.

Thank you!

Those are not Rhino or Grasshopper error messages. What plug-in are we talking about here?

True, sorry for the incomplete information.

These errors come from EnergyPlus, after trying to export a model created from Honeybee.

But I think they are associated with the geometry, so it might be possible to fix it in grasshopper easier than on EnergyPlus directly.
