Hi Justin, Because I have self generated the itp file, and that's the only place where charge in terms of partial charge is added. Is the problem lying there? Also can't we denote the partial charges in decimal because in real some atoms will have net charges that can be decimal values due to presence or absence of electronegative atoms adjacent to it?
And are all the other notes and warnings generated are all because of that? karpurmanjari On Mon, Nov 26, 2018 at 10:31 AM Karpurmanjari Kakati < ch18resch01...@iith.ac.in> wrote: > Dear All, > > My System contains, while doing NVT of the same, I got the following Note > > > > > > > *NOTE 1 [file sa.top, line 80]: System has non-zero total charge: > 12.936997 Total charge should normally be an integer.
