The manual says "All residues, including solvent molecules, have to be
chosen by the RRES card to be considered for decomposition." so I would
suggest changing the bottom of your input file to:
LISTOUT=POUT
DISANG=RESTRAINTS.dat
decomposed residues
RRES 1 6904
END
printed residues
RES 1 6904
END
END
If something doesn't work, it would help to know specifics in order to
try helping.
Also, the idecomp flag means something different in standard simulations
than it does with TI. When running TI, the decomposed energies reflect
dV/dlambda, not the total decomposed potential. Indeed, I would expect
most of the internal terms to be 0, but a small number to be non-zero
(depending on how far the 1-4 nonbonded interactions extend from your
softcore mask).
Good luck,
Jason
