This message by itself may not indicate a problem, but the message
should disabled when you add the lines
dyn.breakAllBondsIn("resname LIG")
or
dyn.group("resname LIG")
where dyn is each IVM object.
> As such, the testosterone is not in a proper aliphatic ring anymore.
Are you saying that the covalent geometry of the ligand is incorrect?
This would indicate that the associated PSF is incomplete - missing
bonds, angles or impropers. How was this PSF created? If you wish to
treat the ligand as a rigid body, then the group option above must be
chosen, and resname LIG must be excluded in the selection when calling
fixupCovalentGeom.
I hope my response is on the right track.
best regards--
Charles
