Energy budget for non-accreting case

I looked at the total energies for the non-accreting case and everything looks good.

Total energy seems to flatten out after the first collapse… The 5% error could be due to the softening approximation for the gravitational energy I am using in visit… But the temperature on this run also looks good

Here we see the temperature at the 1st and last frame on a linear scale.

However, with accretion turned on a hot spot develops instantly within the accretion kernel before the disk has had time to collapse or heat… This is certainly a bug that I will look into this weekend.

It looks like the problem module was creating two point gravity objects - and that the additional point gravity object had no softening. This was causing the inside out collapse and the large heating at the center.
