Hi Qinghua!


As you expected, this solution works! Thanks so much!


If the atomic number of the dummy atom is assigned as "-1" in Mg.lib, the atomic number appearing

in the generated topology file would become "2". Actually, any integer other than "1" is OK.

One note is that if the atomic number is set to be "0", the NUMEXTRA (number of extra points found in topology)

at the top of the topology needs to be changed as the number of the atoms of type "EPW".


Best,

Zhicheng

Hello Zhicheng,

Thanks for your interest in our work.

In the topology file, the atomic number was set as 1 for the dummy atom, so
the program treat all the dummy atoms as hydrogen atoms, though the vdW
parameters are set ZERO.

You can set the atomic number of the dummy atom as *-1* in the library
file (*.lib). I think it can fix the problem.
Please let me know if it works or not.


All the best,
Qinghua
