Point Mass Error

      What does the warning mean in this case? The shape of the mass is not ideal?

      Hi Galaxy,

      This warning appears when you scope the point mass to a large number of elements. Point masses scoped to a large number of elements can cause the solver to consume excessive amounts of memory. If this situation occurs, consider modifying the Pinball setting to reduce the number of elements included in the solver. To distribute a point mass to the entire model, you might consider specifying density directly instead of using the point mass approach.
