Can LAMMPS print total time (in fs) from the beginning of a simulation (even after a restart file is used)?
thermo_style “time” re-sets to zero each time I restart a simulation
Thanks,

this can be easily worked around.
in the first run define the variable:
variable mytime equal time
and then after the run statement has finished insert:
print “${mytime}” file saved.time
for all following runs you can now do:
variable svtime file saved.time
variable mytime v_svtime+time
and, again, after the run you do:
print “${mytime}” file saved.time
this way the file “saved.time” will contain the accumulated time after a run and the variable mytime will always have the current time.
