correct

> Are there other 'tricky things' that need to be specified? For example, does it matter which bonds (i.e., C - C, C - N,..) are cut, or the code will adjust that automatically? 

standard QM/MM good sense apply. The code does not do anything automatically.

One more thing: you’ll have to specify the ratio between the  classical equilibrium bond distance and the quantum one (with the kinds that you have specified).
