In my intro class, I am trying to design for radiation sources. Currently, I am trying to plot the flux from neutron and photon source locations progressively moving further and further away, however the code is not running and it says "geometry error: no cell found run terminated because 10 particles got lost."

Hi,
you are trying to calculate an F5 (and F15) at (0,0,0) where your neutrons are emitted. Try to remove this calculation point, like this :
F5:N 10 0 0 1
20 0 0 1
30 0 0 1
40 0 0 1
50 0 0 1
60 0 0 1
70 0 0 1
80 0 0 1
90 0 0 1
100 0 0 1
