[QE-users] NEB : path length is increasing

Dear Dr. Tamas your ideas are very helpful. Your are right.i have just noticed that  it is a surface reaction + diffusion of dissociated products (SO & O) to most stable sites ( one reaction + 2 diffusion step). Dissociation occurs in image 2 immediately ,  image 3,4,5 shows diffusion of SO to most stable site (a bit far site , 3 Angstrom), (image 5 is rotation of SO), image 5 shows diffusion of "O" and again rotation of "SO" . So how to break down this steps into simpler steps than can be easily handle by NEB ? how to deal many rotations of "SO" molecule as it takes most of the images ? 
attached is axsf output file for the neb, please view it with xcrysden     On Monday, October 26, 2020, 06:31:22 PM GMT+4, Tamas Karpati <tkarpati at gmail.com> wrote:  
 
 please note that in case your preoptimized first and/or last structures
are not the direct reactant and product structures but a R+diffusion
or P+diffusion step results, your MEP would (and it does) look
as if you have modelled a two (or even more) steps "reaction" even if
just one of them is actually "chemistry".

I didn't consider the former (most stable site) because the distance between molecule and surface is 3.5 A , , however for the less stable site , the distance is 1.5 A, so i thought it is not proper to consider this physisorbed state in NEB, Please correct me if i'm wrong.
