"Ordinary" torsional terms always have phases of 0 or 180 as you note. But
I think the program will accept other values, if you have a good reason for
using them. Note that if you want artificial restraints (as opposed to
a "real" force field) using nmropt=1 is probably an easier way to proceed.

...good luck...dac
