Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] shadow overlap error

["Michael J. Witte" <mjwitte@xxxxxxxx>]

You may increase the limit for this using the SHADOWING CALCULATIONS object.  
The second field "Max_figures_shadow" defaults to 15000.  I would suggest 
increase the limit in small increments of 1000 or 2000 just until the error 
goes away.
