+<p>This error means you have two python files that import each other. This can occur if you have an activity defined in
+one file, and a model in another, and the two reference each other.</p>
+<p>The recommended practice here is <em>not</em> to import activities from the model file - activities should reference the model,
+not the other way around. The activity files will need to be imported from your main file prior to running simulation.
+Convenient as it may seem, we do <em>not</em> recommend using your model file as your main file - make a separate <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">main.py</span></code> and
+import both the model and the activities.</p>
