Hi Luka, I enjoyed your tutorial on Vectorworks University!
I checked the U/R-values for the building elements, and am using spaces to generate volumes. I clicked through all the various menus/setting I could find, but didn't see anything out of line.
I tried setting up advanced parameters, and basic ones as well. The cooling loads are stuck at zero.
Please see the attached file.
Thanks!

Not sure if this is the best spot to post this question, but here goes: I'm learning to use ENERGOS, and hope it will help me evaluate design options. However, I need to have confidence it's working in order to trust the results. Which brings me to the issue...
I have a heliodon on the same layer as my spaces, walls, slabs, etc. and it's set for the project location. It's in a temperate climate with hot, humid summers, but the results show zero cooling load. This is consistent whether I use Basic or Advanced settings for the heating, cooling, and ventilation settings. (A typical mechanical system for projects in the area will have cooling and heating loads that are roughly equal.) All the walls and slabs are standard Vectorworks styles.
Thoughts? It's a big enough error, I feel like I'm missing something obvious.
Thanks!

Thank you, I will add glazing and revise the overheating limit, and see what happens!
