Dear all,

The sample input file on page 476 of the Amber22 tutorial has "ntc = 2, ntf
= 2" but using igammd=11 for LiGaMD (suggested in the next
section) results in the following error:

| Gaussian Accelerated Molecular Dynamics (GaMD)
| GaMD input parameters:
| igamd,iEP,iED = 11 2 2
| ntcmd,nteb,ntave = 2500000 30000000 500000
| ntcmdprep,ntebprep = 1000000 1000000

| GaMD dihedral potential boost: EthreshD,kD,k0D = 0.0000
 0.0000 0.0000
|
*ERROR: Softcore potentials require ntf=1 because SHAKE constraints on
some | bonds might be removed.*

 Input errors occurred. Terminating execution.

Choosing ntf=ntc=1 is problematic with 2fs dt. Is it okay to have "ntc =
2, ntf = 1" for dual boost LiGaMD if the simulations run fine?

Best,
Mish
