[gmx-users] Dihedral between non bonded atoms

[Mark Abraham]

Hi,

The list cannot accept attachments, so please find another way to share
your inputs, e.g. a file sharing service. The pdb on its own would not be
enough for anyone to help, because that doesn't tell us what atoms are
concerning you.

By design, pdb2gmx will not try to generate a dihedral if there's no
bond-like interaction in an .rtp building block, so I suspect the issue is
that there is a bond. Distance is not relevant.
