Sure, this is predictable. This force field's files come filled with LJ
functions, and the default pertains to all of them. So you can either
have one form or the other.
The issue is that if the force field generates the functions for
interactions based on the atom types, you can't mix the two types, since
the result is not defined. Sorry I didn't pick this up the first time,
but if you'd had a descriptive header "I'm trying to add parameters for
(?) crystalline zinc oxide, which require Buckingham nonbonded
interactions" then your strategy problem would have been obvious.
I'm guessing here, but you may not be constrained by the default type if
you just add your functions in the right form in your [ molecule ]
section. This means you don't need to modify the force field files at
all! However you will need to supply a non-bonded interaction manually
for any new atom type with every atom type in your system. Those also
seems likely to be undefined.
You also shouldn't be using ffgmx for a new simulation, because it has
been deprecated for years now.
