Dear X-plor users,
I am a new user and am having some difficulty in finding a suitable
'drop' value to be used in Rigid body minimization. The manual says that it is
the expected drop in energy but as far as I can see, it is not that simple.
The initial step size seems to be equal to {drop value}/{E total **2}.
Is there a rule of thumb about appropriate drop values? Thanks in advance.
