Hi :) I'd say that if the changes are small you should be able to get away with it. You might want to start off the second part of the run with a smaller time step to relax, though. If the change is from TRP to TRP*, you only need to have a modified topology, without touching the coordinates. You

The reliability of the PMF curve depends on the reliability of sampling. If you're over-sampling in some regions along the reaction coordinate and under-sampling in others, then the weighting is probably wrong and the result inaccurate. I can't tell exactly from your description what's go
