TL;DR
MCNP error code: bad trouble in subroutine mars_xs_init of imcn
Hi everyone,

I have used MCNP6.2 for few years. This is the first time that I encountered the error such as below:

bad trouble in subroutine mars_xs_init of imcn
l_list too small.

I tried to run an input deck and track a bunch of decay isotopes. Is anyone has similar error before? If you do, do you know what's the problem of this error? Thank you so much!

I am out of my depth and posting only because no-one better has replied yet.

'mars' is a method used for ray tracing charged particles through a magnetic field. Do you have bfld and bflcl input cards?

If that doesn't help I can only suggest you post a minimal input file that produces the error and maybe someone will see the problem.
