Thanks for feedback Rahull.

Since both types work independently in pmemd, I guess only minor changes
are required to make the combination also work :-) To the developers: is
it hard to make the combination of both restraint types work in
pmemd(.cuda)?

Thanks,

JP

My reference structure is the starting structure of the simulation. I am using following script below. At the final step the restraint energy should be zero as the 'k' goes to zero. But it is not so. Am I wrong conceptually?
