Re: [AMBER] restrainr problem with PMEMD: using nmropt=1 and NTR=1 simultaneously

Hi,

It's difficult to mix nmropt = 1 with ntr = 1 the way you do (i.e.,
using the old group specification for the position restraint).
What you can do is to use the more recent restraint_wt and restraintmask
keywords (see the relevant section about ntr in the doc).

Your input would then be:
#################
&cntrl
   nstlim=20000, dt=0.002, ntx=5, irest=1, ntpr=500, ntwr=50000, ntwx=100,
   temp0=300.0, ntt=1, tautp=2.0, ioutfm=1, ntxo=2, ig=-1,

   ntb=2, ntp=1, ntc=2, ntf=2,

   nrespa=1, NTR=1, nmropt=1,
   restraint_wt = 30., restraintmask = ':1',
  &end
  &wt type='END'
  &end
  LISTOUT=POUT
  DISANG=restraint_list.dist
