Re: AMBER: Dummy Atom Types on both states

Hi,

If you have enough resources, you should run the same simulation different
times using different starting conformations/random seeds. You may however,
make the vexing discovery that the resulting set of free energies are
more spread than the hysteresis on a single run would have suggested ...
