Hi akareem28,

Thank you for your inquiry.

Because the distance rij is shorter than the cutoff distance Rc for all pairs of atoms i and j, the error message "Error: All the point atoms are classified as surface atoms." is shown. This means that no Voronoi polyhedra are made.

To perform accurate calculations, please set a sufficiently larger value for the cutoff.radius keyword. If the value is larger than the threshold, which depends on the system, accurate calculations can be performed. However, setting too large a value will increase the computational time significantly.

Please refer to p.10 of Vorotis 1.1.0 User Guide for a more detailed information.

Best regards,
Kengo Nishio
