…k on restart WriteCheckPoint always emits the spatialCrossVec block into the header when plot_cross is set. ReadCheckPoint skipped *reading* it when reset_stats == 1 but did not skip *over* it in the stream, so the turbulent-forcing block that follows was parsed starting from the spatial-cross numbers. With plot_cross = 1, reset_stats = 1, turbForcing > 1 and turbRestartRun = 1 the first 264 accumulated correlation values were loaded as OU forcing amplitudes. Since nothing further is read from the header the stream never resynchronised and the failure was completely silent -- outcomes ranged from a harmless perturbation to an immediately unstable run. Consume the block unconditionally and discard it when resetting.
