[gmx-users] md with multiple ligands

Hi Justin,

I've found that I get this error with my relative FEP calculations if my
.gro file with the relevant protein and ligand coordinates, describes the
protein numbering from a1-3017, and the ligand from 3018 onwards for
example, while in my topology file, a1-3017 refer to the same protein, and
afterwards I start label the first atom of my ligand as 1 again, instead of
3018.

This problem usually pops up when I manually combine the relevant protein
and ligand molecule type and make an error with the numbering.

Kind regards,

Billy
