<div dir="ltr">Hi Roberto,<div><br></div><div>InitialTime is the current timestep in the simulation. It refers to the start time of the current timestep (as opposed to an intermediate time during the adaptive timestepping in Enzo).

</div></div>Weird that it's not there! yt can get the cycle number if it's not.<br>
You can see this and other parameters by looking at pf.parameters .<br>
You can try using the "pprint" module to make it looks nice:<br>
<br>
import pprint<br>
pprint.pprint(pf.parameters)<br>
