Dear Bálint,

Thanks for the answer. I tried the restart keyword in Plumed.
The column of time in the COLVAR file starts again from zero time, as well
in the HILLS file, instead the bias potential deposited restarts from the
last values of the previous simulation (see an example below)
I am still trying to figure out if everything is okay.





*249.999000 0.734731 411.630241 250.000000 0.740089 411.685477#! FIELDS
time phi metad.bias 0.000000 -1.024012 399.591716 0.001000 -1.021786
399.541410*

Best regards
Simone
