duino code generator works fine, but when exporting, it doesn't seem to work? Could some one please tell me what is FFcasts.h, and if that could be effecting my code? Or if there is anything wrong in general with the export.

Hi friends,
trying to get a cumulative sky image metric to run and encountered an issue with the image-based metrics component. It throws:
Runtime error (KeyNotFoundException): honeybee_materialLib Traceback: line 768, in main, "<string>" line 1442, in script
I guess this is some sort of setup issue on my end, or I messed up the definition? Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Max

e openings with the simple calculation of room air and IES.
I am testing a shoebox of 15x5m, 3m height, 2 windows of 1sqm, only 1 person of internal gains, no heating, no cooling, basically nothing.
The tests were running fine with the "Wind pressure coefficient type" as Input on the AFN simulation control. But, as the number of ach that I was obtaining was tiny (approx. 1/6 of the ach of room air) I thought that the problem could be the Input and my wind pressure coefficient calculations. Therefore, I changed the WPCoefficient type to "Average surface calculation" and I deleted all the wind pressure elements.
As soon as I change this (and only this) the simulation crashes because of the error "DualSetPointWithDeadBand: Unanticipated combination of heating and cooling loads - report to EnergyPlus Development Team" And also, my heating set point changes from -100 degrees to 12
I've look for this in the bigladder manual for energy plus and looks like if I had set a thermostatic zone control on dual set point with dead band, what I haven't, because, to be honest, I didn't even know it existed.
I hope any of you can help me, because I've been trying hard, but I don't find which is the problem.
I have to say that all the AFN data is internalised (beside the run simulation) and will be a bit difficult to read. I'm sorry for this but, as they are about 20 user objects, I thought it was too much to upload.
Thanks a lot…

This I found by following the instructions here:

HOWEVER:
At home here on my newer, faster Windows 10 machine - no such luck. This is becoming quite frustrating as I feel I am failing some obscure intelligence test.
I have attached what I suspect is the likely problem identifier - not that it has helped me identify the fix. What I believe is the salient message is appears in the OF_Env_Create Powershell Window (Running as Administrator) , which is step 3 on the Windows 10 special instructions found here:
https://github.com/ladybug-tools/butterfly/wiki/Windows-10-Installation-Notes
The message (in red as can be seen in the attached picture) states:
Set-ExecutionPolicy : Windows PowerShell updated your execution policy successfully, but the setting is overridden by a policy defined at a more specific scope.

Il workshop avanzato ECOLOGIC PATTERNS affronta l’impiego di strategie parametriche all’interno del processo progettuale, approfondendo l’utilizzo di Grasshopper in sinergia con plug-in, software di analisi ambientale e simulazione fisica. Obiettivo fondamentale è la generazione della forma come risultato di tecniche di form-finding e di input ambientali (solari, termici e acustici). Verranno acquisiti nuovi strumenti operativi e di simulazione al fine di costruire modelli parametrici ottimizzati in grado di adattarsi a diverse condizioni di contesto.

ies and ideas (in this case agent-based modelling) simply because they are the new cool thing to do and, if we think carefully about how the integration of agent-based modeling will improve the accuracy and usefulness of our models, we are more likely to make lasting contributions through their integration.
For example, it seems vital to me that such agent-based models be grounded in some clear quantifiable observations of human behavior in real buildings as opposed to relying on our own coefficients to represent how valuable we think certain things are to the occupants. I will give an example of two agent-based ideas that I have had - one of which has turned out to seem much more valuable in the long-run because of it's grounding in real-world data and I plan to implement soon.
To start with the more valuable example, ever since I read this awesome book on adaptive thermal comfort (https://books.google.com/books?id=vE7FBQAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=adaptive+thermal+comfort&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjDmO6avNnJAhUD9h4KHXWVBuAQ6AEIHDAA#v=onepage&q=adaptive%20thermal%20comfort&f=false), I have had several ideas for how to integrate the findings of recent comfort surveys into our energy models. Generally, the focus of thermal comfort research seems to be shifting from theoretical human energy balance calculations to surveys of occupant behavior, giving us a lot of great data that helps incorporate these behavioral factors in our energy models. To continue one of the ideas that you mention, Theodore, here is a plot from the book that describes the window-opening behavior of occupants as the indoor temperature increases:
Currently, EnergyPlus does not easily allow you to set such a function for window-opening, as you point out but the incorporation of this behavior seems necessary to produce an accurate model of a naturally ventilated building (since opening all of the windows as soon as the indoor temperature hits 21 C is far from realistic). To get around this, I was thinking of including an option on the nat vent component that will put in a series of IF/THEN nat vent objects that approximate this smooth function through a step function:
IF 19 < indoor temperature < 20 THEN WindowOpening = 10%
IF 20 < indoor temperature < 21 THEN WindowOpening = 15%
IF 21 < indoor temperature < 22 THEN WindowOpening = 21%
IF 22 < indoor temperature < 23 THEN WindowOpening = 35%
...
I am hoping to implement this soon.
To describe the example that I have realized was not so helpful with time, when I was first drafting the idea for high-resolution comfort maps (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLruLh1AdY-Sj3ehUTSfKa1IHPSiuJU52A), I originally thought that I would develop computer models an animations of occupants moving around the thermally diverse space to make themselves more comfortable. Once I started to get into this, however, I realized that the social characteristics of a space usually have a much larger impact on where people place themselves than the thermal characteristics and it is not until the thermal characteristics become very uncomfortable or the presence of other people is completely removed that the thermal environment dominates the movement behavior. Thus, in order to model the occupant behavior, I would have to code in the relative importance of a large number of these social characteristics in relation to thermal comfort, which would have been a process of me simply making up coefficients to produce cool-looking but somewhat meaningless animations. It is only when my nicely-designed thermal environments were aligned with the social/programmatic characteristics of the space that I could argue that I was justifiably adding value since the thermal characteristics were not in contradiction to or being weighted against the social ones. So, in the end, realized that all I needed in order to produce a good design was to align the thermal environment with the placing of program and the agent-based modelling would not have enabled the production of a much better design. This is the reason why the human silhouettes are manually placed in the thermal animations on the youtube playlist in the above link and is the reason why I do not intend to incorporate agent-based modelling in this particular manner.
Let me know your thoughts on this as I realize I may also be looking at this from a narrow perspective that is not informed by all that agent-based modelling has to offer.
