Script crashed as soon as it started to run, gave me this:

atRainMaker::Rain error
- inflow at pixel 0, 0 from pixel 0, 1 exceeded error threshold
- inflow = 900756353198782190000000000000000.000000
- outflow = 0.066510
- diff = 3603025412795128800000000000000000.000000
- flow threshold = 100.000000

Hi Barid,

Thanks again for the log. I think that nailed it. It was due to the initialisation of some values in an array being skipped by one loop but all values being read in another loop. I think the mis-match in the loops pre-dates the release of the plugin. Presumably for most users that have used this plugin in the past, the uninitialised values have happened to occupy memory that was previously zeroed by its last occupier, so everything worked nicely by luck.

Anyway, the updated plugin is available here:

Thank you for reporting this bug and for your assistance with debugging. Please let me know if you find any other problems with using the plugin or with the scripts.

Best regards,
Aaron.

Looks like that fixed it. Thanks much! The area I'm working on relies on rain water as the dominant factor for ground water, so it was important to get this working. Thanks again.
