nightly build: Error message regression in nightly build (6.5.0.dev2 (preliminary) 05/06/2024)

[pya]

The maximum length of a model name is limited to 16 characters. If the name is too long MF6 shows an error message. This message changed from version 6.4.1 to the current nightly build. I think it is missing valuable information now. I created a model with a too long model name on purpose.

With mf6: 6.4.1 Release 12/09/2022, I get:

ERROR REPORT:

  1.     ERROR. INVALID MODEL NAME: GWF_NAME___TEN123
  2.     NAME LENGTH OF 17 EXCEEDS MAXIMUM LENGTH OF 16

UNIT ERROR REPORT:

  1. ERROR OCCURRED WHILE READING FILE 'mfsim.nam'
 

But with mf6: 6.5.0.dev2 (preliminary) 05/06/2024, I get:

ERROR REPORT:

  1. Exchange has invalid (unrecognized) model name(s): GWF_NAME___TEN12
     GWT_NAME___TEN12

UNIT ERROR REPORT:

  1. ERROR OCCURRED WHILE READING FILE 'mfsim.nam'

The latter message is not as helpful as the older one from version 6.4.1.

I am on macOS arm64 (Sonoma 14.3).
