Re: [AMBER] Temperature not correctly maintained using AMBER14

Hi Ross,

Thanks, it works exactly as you said: by using ntpr <= 999, the temperature
is maintained nicely at 300 K. The performance is degraded a little bit due
to more intensive I/O, and the output files are larger, but the results are
good.
Maybe you guys can patch it in one of next bugfixes.
Thanks a lot for your help,
Best regards,
Gonzalo

Hi Gonzalo,

I managed to reproduce this. Strangely it seems to only be a problem if
ntpr>=vrand (the combination of which is not in the test suite). So please
try setting ntpr = 500 for your system and see if it then appears to work.
I will setup a bug report to track this.

All the best
Ross
