Hi i want to do daylight simulations for different floors through an atrium but im not sure how to go about it. Im using this simaultion but its only giving it to me for the ground floor. Would anyone be able to help out with this or have another way to find that out? Its something like this with some floors being open to the atrium and some floors beign closed and having glazed panelling

The geometry was not embedded in the file, making it difficult to understand what is going on.
Seems to be that you have only one zone [I might be wrong, though]. But basically, if you have many zones, you plug them into the HB_GridRooms [number 20 in your file], and you’ll get the analysis grids for them.
Probably this will need some tuning after that to be sure, but give it a try.

Hi so i tried doing different zones this is my file that im working on with the buildings infront being a shaded device in a way but i dont think the results are correct cause the top floors need to act like shading devices right for the bottom floors? I treid adding floor slabs to the shading device brep but its not giving me the right results Also im unable to use the front buildings as shading devices as it give me an error saying shadowing error

The GH above is not associated with the Rhino file you uploaded with Wetransfer. So the situation is the same as for my respect.
Though I see that in Rhino you are using double surfaces for walls/roofs/etc. You need one unique surface for each.
Good luck,
