Description
MAUSSteppingAction kills hard coded tracks with more than 100k steps - this is a bug
Updated by Rogers, Chris about 12 years ago
Sure, probably two datacards - MaxNumberOfSteps (integer, default 100k probably ok) and UseMaxNumberOfSteps (boolean, default true)

Or if the number of steps is negative, it runs forever?

Fixed in rogers, will close when I merge - nb I didn't implement the n steps negative, because I think this can cause it to hang...
One could imagine a loop detection algorithm (every 100k steps, see if particle is increasing in distance from some fixed point)

So is it an unsigned int then? There should be an error raised in the spill probably, right?
