[gmx-users] rlist- group scheme

For any range of cut off it gives wrong results for rlist>rcut-off.

Now I understand where the problem comes.  I tried to see the collisions of
two molecules with a table (user potential). From the resulted LJ potential
between two particles I see that it takes the potential to zero at rlist,
not at rcut-off.
how to deal with it now?


Best regards
