Dear Gromacs users I am doing a free energy calculation of the protein-ligand complex. During decoupling of the ligand vdw forces from protein, I have selected 21 different lambda windows between 0-1. I have put distance angle and dihedral restraints to keep the ligand in its position but in some of my lamda windows, the residue restrained with ligand crashes and generates different PDB structures. It crashes in lambda windows 0,1,2,4,8,9,11,12,13,17,18 however in windows 3,5,6,10, 14,15,19,20 it works well. My restraint section in topology is as below:-

I will be really grateful.
