Re: [AMBER] gaff2 parameters of c3-c3-os-c3

What's happening is that tleap is reading along the parm file for
parameters that address the arrangements c3-c3-os-c3 or c3-os-c3-c3. It
first finds c3-os-c3-c3 and logs a cosine term of amplitude 0.240 kcal/mol
and periodicity 3. The negative in front of the 3 indicates that this is
NOT the last term for the dihedral, so it keeps reading terms until it
finds one with a positive value of the peridiocity. That's the next line,
with an amplitude of 0.160 kcal/mol. I'm not sure how the latter lines got
include at all, or why only the one with periodicity 1 and amplitude 0.000
would be included. It may be something in the code that says "stop reading
negatives for this dihedral once a positive periodicity is found" but
doesn't make provisions for the existence of additional positive
periodicities.

This is a pretty weak point in the code, and has been discussed before in
the context of similar problems.
