24.11

  • a new well-balanced method was added to the CTU PPM solver. This
    does the characteristic projection only on the perturbed pressure
    and then adds back in the hydrostatic pressure. It can be enabled
    via castro.ppm_well_balanced (#2945)

    symmetry boundaries (#2983)

  • more development on 2D spherical geometry (#2973, #2975, #2981)

  • updates to the massive star plotting scripts (#2979)

  • add some new checks to prevent running unsupported combinations
    of solvers (#2978)

  • documentation updates (#2977)

  • flame_wave can now be run in 1D (#2976)

24.05

  • Changed how the shock flag is computed. It is now computed once,
    at the start of a timestep. It also takes into account sources
