Dear Andrew,
At
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/Help/Andrew/ZN2.off you will find,
a FF library for ZN2+ with a total charge of +2 and "ZN" (not Zn) as
atom type & atom name, ZN2 as residue/FF libary name - considering
that Zn remains the chemical element.
At
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/Help/Andrew/tleap.cmd you will find
a tleap script. I hope it will solve your problem when using:
tleap -f tleap.cmd
Pay attention at the _capital letter_ of Zinc when you consider the
residue name, the atom name, the atom type or the chemical element.
Does it help ?
regards, Francois
