Dear GMX users

Could you tell me how to make the topology file for ammonia in tip4p water?

I made topology file for ammonia by hand, as shown at end.
MD dose work when system has only ammonia molecules.

For ammonia in water,
I had though it needed to add just two line at the top of .top file.
------------------------
#include "ffoplsaa.itp"
#include "tip4p.itp"
------------------------

However, I got "Invalid order for directive defaults" in using grompp_d.
Should I add this new atoms information into ffnonbonded.itp directly ??


That should not be necessary. If your [defaults] directive is properly commented out (as shown), you shouldn't get this error.

The order of inclusion is important. You have to define all force field-level directives (e.g., [defaults], [atomtypes], etc) before you can define any [moleculetypes], so you can't #include "tip4p.itp" until after the ammonia parameters, since you're introducing new [atomtypes] for that molecule. The easiest solution is simply to move that #include statement right after the end of the ammonia [moleculetype] definition (see below).

Add #include "tip4p.itp" here.
