Limits on number of irradiation cases in ORIGAMI

[Jeremy]

Running an ORIGAMI case on Windows under SCALE 6.3.1, I received the following failure notice:

***Error : Component 'hist' at 53:1, part of 'document' at 2:3, is beyond the maximum number of irradiation cases!

What is the maximum number of irradiation cases permitted in ORIGAMI?  Is it a hard-and-fast limit imposed by the software, or does it depend on hardware (e.g. amount of RAM available?)

I've run the origami example in the user manual on SCALE 6.3.2 on RHEL 8. Iterating on that example, I've found that the limit to the number of cases is exactly 100 cases prior to getting the following error with 101 cases:

***Error : Component 'hist' at 52:1, part of 'document' at 2:1, is beyond the maximum number of irradiation cases!
***Error:  Error in input!
***Error: Error initializing input!

Just confirming here; the hard-coded limit is indeed 100 "cycle" blocks within the irradiation history array. I don't recall the reason why we specified that limit (possibly we didn't anticipate anyone ever specifying more than 100 cycle blocks), but in the future that limit will be eliminated.
