Hi Jason and others,
If you do specify:

Similar to this example from the manual (Ambertools 12, section 10.2.1)

Don't you also alter the ligand radii? Were the mbondi* radii's developed for this or should you stick with the GAFF parameters for the ligand?
Again, this may just be a matter of "taste", but I figure it can't hurt asking.
I know (Ambertools 12, section 8.2.3) that PBSA if you use (radiopt=1), will stick to the Antechamber/GAFF radii for the ligand (and perhaps even the FF radii for the protein) if there are GAFF parameters present in the prmtop file, instead of swithing to the Tan & Luo radii (TYL06 radii). But perhaps this is only a requirement for the TYL06 radii and not mbondi* radii? Can you clarify this a bit for me?
Best,
Jesper
