Thank you!

Should my ligands have identical names in the .gro file?

For a normal MD simulation, there's no reason to treat the ligands differently in any way. You have two copies of the same molecule, so you only need one ligand topology and you need to note that there are two of these same molecules in the [molecules] directive.

Hello,

I am trying to simulate a dimer with identical ligands bound on each
subunit.

I generated the ligand files with cgenff.

I have Liga and Ligb files that each have identical contents (the
filenames, residue, and molecule name are different though).  I am only
getting errors on the Ligb.prm file in the [dihedral types] section.  The
problematic section repeats the i, j, k, and l atoms for 3 or more lines
but each line has different phi and kphi values.  The error is shown
below
along with the section of the ligb.prm file that presents the issue.


Thank you for your time!

If the ligands are topologically identical, their bonded parameters can
only appear once in the topology. You can't simply #include both
topologies (despite giving them different [moleculetype] names) because
their bonded parameters will be repeated, therefore triggering this error.
