I'm working on a survey http://www.cave-registry.org.uk/svn/CheddarCatchment/Bagpit/ As I'm working on it the Head will be changing as often Using the config file in this directory it works at a scale of 1 100 However if I import common_layout.th (which imports another file) from http://www.cave-registry.org.uk/svn/CheddarCatchment/ Then use the common layout in my local layout, I get an error if I try to go to a scale bigger than 1 139 (eg 1 138) The message does not give me any clues, as far as I can fathom, of what is causing the error, and there is lots going on in these files, some very old now, so how do I find the problem? The error message is writing BagpitP.pdf ... ####################### metapost log file ######################## This is MetaPost, version 2.00 (TeX Live 2019/dev/Debian) (kpathsea version 6.3.1/dev) 23 SEP 2019 19:29 **data.mp (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/metapost/base/mpost.mp (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/metapost/base/plain.mp Preloading the plain mem file, version 1.005) ) (./data.mp {randomseed:=42} [4001] [4002] [4003] [4004] [4005] [4006] [4007] [4008] [4009] [4010] [4011] [ 4012] [4013] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] (./mptextmp.mp) (./mptextmp.mp) (./mptextmp.mp) (./mptextmp.mp) (./mptextmp.mp) (./mptextmp.mp) [22] !
