Hello,

I have just started working with the [ angle_restraints_z ] portion of the code. My initial tests indicate that it works in my system. However, in some cases I am getting a fatal error that a pair interaction is too far apart to be calculated within domain decomposition. Although the error message refers to a bonded interaction, in actuality this atomic pair is the two atoms that define my vector whose angle to the z-axis is restrained. I guess that the same code that requires "bonded interactions have been properly assigned to the domain decomposition cells" also requires this of the vector termini for angle_restraints_z.

I suspect that my solution is to use -noddcheck:

"For pair interactions and tabulated bonds that do not generate exclusions, this check can be turned off with the option -noddcheck."

although it seems zealous to turn off a useful global error detector in order to avoid a crash based on the spurious detection of a known group of only two atoms.

I'm interested first to see if anybody else has encountered this, second to ask if applying -noddcheck seems like a good idea, and third to suggest that angle_restraints_z not spawn this fatal error -- unless it is indeed required (in which case I should not be turning off my ddcheck).

error message follows, wherein atoms 138 and 293 are those that define my angle_restraints_z, which looks like this:

[ angle_restraints_z ]
138 293 1 40 500 1

Thank you,
Chris.
