Solar envelope - Output mesh under site srf

Hei,

I have created a solar envelope definition in GH that seems to be working correctly. However, when analyzing certain periods of time, I am getting a solar collection mesh output that is lower than the site surface. There might be an explanation for this to happen, but I haven’t been able to find it. Do you have any tips on why this might be happening?

The LB_ViewFromSun component can be your friend here.
You can see that hours 6th and 7th are the ones that cause the low mesh values:

The building on the right [top image] of the envelope, and the building on the left of the envelope are those that allow the envelope solar collection to get so low [as a matter of fact, they can be as much as low as you want/can].
