Dear Gate users,

My simulation stuck at geometry initialization in vGate 8.2, I have tested
the geometry by expanding in two dimensions and it seems okay for all
combinations but stuck when using full geometry in 3D.

Please see below script of suspected part of geometry.

Any help is highly appreciated.

Thanks and regards
