Code Changes Behavior (again..)

Flow is suddenly completely different. Particularly the polar outflow, which is now originating from the poles of the progenitor star (last set of figures).

The image to the right is both runs overlaid on each other in wireframe mdoe to prove parameters are the same (inner grid is fixed, outer grid is a function of $q, v_{wind}, v_{orb}$)

Temperature ($P/\rho$)

Gas Concentration

This is gas emitted within $15^\circ$ of the progenitor's equatorial plane. This variable remains on the equatorial plane.

Velocity

To prove velocity is being set to zero in each (implying this isn't the issue behind the equatorial flow)

Polar Outflow

In the new run, it is apparent gas from the polar region of the star is either heading directly to the polar region, or is interacting with the companion and then heading to the polar region.
