After running the PO_ValidateModel, I frequently get the error The following duplicated Face identifies were found and then a list of Room_ID…Face_ID. Looking at the same, I see two different faces with the same Face_ID. What I’m confused about is why these errors are occurring in the first place. …

Hi @justinshultz , I think the issue is with the combination of SplitRoom and ResetIdentifier commands. So SplitRoom resets faces ID by adding room id to the original face id. So that even there are two faces that have the same display name (“Face bfd59” in the following video), but their ids are st…

Hi @justinshultz , That should not be happening. Can you help us to recreate the issue? Does it happen when you copy the rooms? Is there a way to recreate the issue in a new model? @mingbo should be able to help you with fixing it quickly. I can share a Python script with you that resets all the IDs…

Hi @mostapha , I noticed it happens most in spaces that have been PO_SplitRoom or rooms with more than 6 sides. Can you share the python script? That would be a huge help! Good to know that it is not important in the GEM file. Sorry I can’t share the model! I just finished fixing it. If it happens…

Hi @justinshultz , @mingbo and I had a chat and we are going to add this functionality as a new command for the Rhino plugin which should also address your other wish for using the display name for the IDs to make the IDF file and the EnergyPlus reports human-readable. We will also try to fix the i…

[image] justinshultz: I noticed it happens most in spaces that have been PO_SplitRoom or rooms with more than 6 sides. Hi @justinshultz , Without a sample geometry, it is hard to recreate this issue on my side. Meanwhile, as @mostapha mentioned above, we just added a new command: PO_Re…

Hi @mingbo , If I find a more reliable way to reproduce the Duplicate Face_ID error, I will let you know! Thank you for adding the new command! You guys are amazing with your turnaround time. I will update the plugin in an hour. Best, Justin

@mingbo and @mostapha I’ve found a pretty reliable way to create the duplicate surface ID error. One of the ways I like to model spaces that are not rectangular is to use the Draw Room command with the Rectangular option then drawing the Room within the whole void. [image] This creates an overlap…

Thanks @justinshultz I will look into this issue and see if I could recreate it on my side.

Hi @justinshultz I added a new ID generating option: ByDisplayNameAndID, which adds a random id to the display name for the identifier so that it could avoid your issue happening again. A new installer will be available in a few hours, I will keep you posted. [image]

[image] justinshultz: Hi @mingbo this is a good catch, though PO_ValidateModel finds an error with those duplicate IDs, or at least it did in my case. Are these false positive errors/warnings in PO_ValidateModel? Hi @justinshultz , I don’t think these errors are false-positive errors, and I th…
