Re: [AMBER] number of frames in MMPBGBSA

Were there 501 frames in the original trajectory? Because in your input
file you specify for the analysis to start at frame 500 (start_frame=500).
If there were 500 frames, then MMPBSA.py would have analyzed frame 500 and
frame 501, a total of two frames.

That's my guess.
