Steps that lead to the error

For an ALGO=CHI calculation, a WAVEDER file generated from a previous calculation using LOPTICS=T should exist in the new working directory. The restart calculation needs WAVEDER copied from restart_folder, but it seems that by default only WAVECAR and CHGCAR are copied.
How to copy WAVEDER file to the restart calculation working directory?

What should happen

What happened instead

Thanks for brining it up. I have not had any experience with using WAVEDER file for restart, but I agree it should be made possible to copy for restart, or indeed, copy any output file for restart when needed.

Unfortunately, at the moment the code has hard-coded CHGCAR and WAVECAR for restart as it covers the most cases.
