I'm trying to run the basic example using my own mesh that has been tetrahedralized using the filter.

Additionally, how can I decide / choose simulation points for my mesh?

Sorry, we won't be able to support without a minimum executable example

Transferred from separate question:

https://github.com/DiyaKalyanpur/basic_example.

The x0,y0,z0,x1,y1,z1 values are such that we're assuming the mesh is on the origin.

hence (- coordinate/2) to (+coordinate/2).

I'm not sure how to simulate only a certain point or the whole tissue.

If I can just understand how to stimulate using any mesh and where I'm going wrong, I'll be able to work on my complex experiments. As of now, my mesh is successfully imported but the experiment just won't run.

Since its the atrium, I want to simulate depolarization in order to calculate the p wave.

Any suggestions/ recommendations on how I could get that working would be extremely helpful.

The recommended way is using the Stim parameter group. It's elec structure let's you define a stimulated region for example as a sphere around a given point. This is described in section 23.3.2 of the user manual: https://opencarp.org/documentation/user-manual

Alternatively, you can also mark the elements you want to stimulate in your mesh and assign them a dedicated material class in a thirdparty meshprocessing tool. Then you can simply use Stim.elec.geomID
