[gmx-users] Error when adding a unnatural amio acid

This is a good idea. But here comes following major
complaints: "Atom H4 not found in rtp database in
residue ASO, it looks a bit like H1". Does the group
number matters? I assigned the bulky side chain as one
group number 4. Should the H4 comes with O4? I check
my rtp file, O4 is connected to C4 and CBO. Atom type
of O4 is OS which is sugar or ester oxygen, therefore
no need H4 at all. So, what is likely the reason the
program kept asking for H*? For better reference,
large portion of the output is also give below.

Thanks a lot,

There are 1 chains and 0 blocks of water and 1
