Hi,

I tried this few times and it works up to saveamberparm. the error i get
is could not find angle parameter: etc etc
and No torson terms for ....
i built the units properly (using antechamber) but when two units are
connected a new bond is created along with new angles and torsions, how
can describe those? should i set them manually?

I know the mol = sequence { FPR REPU REPU REPU REPU ENDU} is working
because when i type edit mol i see the chain as expected.

I am using amber9 and i usually use xleap -s -f leaprc.ff99SB

Thanks,
Taufik
