Re: AMBER: PB Bomb in pb_reslist(): maxnbr too small

Hi Steven,

The error message shows that the estimation of maximum pairs for
residue-based cutoff is too small. A larger cutoff, for example by
setting cutres=12 (default 10) usually works fine.

The current estimation, which is for explicit water simulations, tends
to give a number too small for implicit water simulations. This will be
revised in the next release.

All the best,
Ray
