This is how I set up in cfg file for FFD BOX. Could anyone please tell me what I have done is wrong so that I cannot get FFD_SURFACE_POINTS (FFD_SURFACE_POINTS=0)

The order of the points is causing this, we will introduce a helpful error message (https://github.com/su2code/SU2/issues/2025) try
-0.01, -1.2, 0.0, 1.01, -1.2, 0.0, 1.01, 1.2, 0.0, -0.01, 1.2, 0.0, ...
