[Mesa-users] Opacity hook in parallel

Hi all,
I am working on plugging an external opacity code into MESA. I have the code compiling and running, however when I use the other kap hook in run_star_extras.f, MESA seems to only be running one thread.  When getting the external opacity code to run in parallel on its own, I did so by using a parallel do loop over the set of temperature and density points, but it seems like the other kap hook is only called for one zone at a time. My question is, can MESA call the other kap routine in parallel, or do I need to set up the kap routine to be parallelized internally?

Some more details that might be important: I'm working with version 12778, and the most recent release of the SDK.
Thanks for the help,
Lynn Buchele
