Syntax:
reset_timestep N
Examples:
reset_timestep 0 reset_timestep 4000000
Description:
Set the timestep counter to the specified value. This command normally comes after the timestep has been set by reading it in from a file or a previous simulation advanced the timestep.
The read_data and create_box commands set the timestep to 0; the read_restart command sets the timestep to the value it had when the restart file was written.
Restrictions: none
This command cannot be used when a dump file is defined via the dump command and has already been written to. It also cannot be used when a restart frequency has been set, and a restart file has already been written. This is because the changed timestep can mess up the planned timestep for the next file write. See the undump command or restart 0 command for info on how to turn off these definitions if necessary. New specifications for dump and restart files can be given after the reset_timestep command is used.
