​As the error message states, .%CI is not a valid Amber mask -- the period
is not a character used in the Amber mask syntax. What made you think it
was? If it's mistaken documentation, it would be nice to fix it to avoid
this misunderstanding in the future.

The character you're looking for is @, not .

change AMBER_ATOM_TYPE .%CI C
