BNDF_Block=.True., BNDF_Block=.FALSE., respective seems not to work in
FDS. I reprogrammed one of my old input files that include this
commands. The set up as well as the simulation did not start. I tried
it also with a very easy case, simply a box with a fire source and one
additional OBST. The simulation starts after deleting the command.

It seems on first pass that this is a character case problem.
Try it again with BNDF_BLOCK in all caps.

Check out Section 4.16.5 (page 51) for more information on usage.

The command BNDF_DEFAULT=.FALSE., BNDF_DEFAULT=.TRUE. respetive, in
the MISC line works but not BNDF_BOLOCK in the OBST line. May be that
I have some tomato's on my eyes because it's 9:30PM, but I can't see
the mistake or typo (I'm joking). See a part of my input file.


&OBST XB=-0.5,0.5,-0.5,0.5,0,0.2
SURF_ID6='INERT','INERT','INERT','INERT','INERT','FIRE'/
&OBST XB=-0.5,0.5,-0.5,0.5,19,20 SURF_ID='CONCRETE',
BNDF_BLOCK=.FALSE./

&ISOF QUANTITY='HRRPUV'/
&BNDF QUANTITY='WALL_TEMPERATURE'/

No longer a BNDF_BLOCK on the OBST line. The RC3 user's guide is
incorrect. The latex file in the repository has been updated to
correct this.
BNDF_OBST sets for all sides of the OBST
BNDF_FACE(-3:3) sets for the six sides of the OBST
