I don't think Amber can deal with a model like this. You have four charge
points that all have to lie on a single line. Both angles and torsions
become degenerate at 180 degrees, so constraining 3 or more points to be
on a line is a tricky proposition with standard force fields.
I think this would require special code to be added to the extra points
section. At least one developer is thinking about a "general" extra
points facility, but that is far from reality.
