Just another word of caution... the following strategy:

addionsrand mol Cl- 0
addionsrand mol Na+ 2448 Cl- 2448

Also known as "add-then-neutralize" may fake the expected macroscopic salt concentration (see: https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jctc.9b00953 for instance)

Best,

Matias

PS: you can apply "addionsrand" in one step by setting the corresponding amount of each ion ;-)

Be careful adding 1M of any salt. Force-field parameters tend to have issues as you increase salt concentration.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [AMBER] addions

Dear all,
 I have this system where I need to add the counterions of Na+ and the salt of 1M NaCl according to a protocol.

I am aware of how to add Na+ using "addions cc Na+ 0" command in tleap. But I have no idea how to add the salt part. How to do that? Could someone guide me on this? I am a beginner.
