Level-shifting of the virtual orbitals seems to have been implemented for MSSCF, OCC, and other modules, but not for the SCF module as far as I can tell. In my experience with other programs this is more useful in converging the SCF than MOM or damping, though there is a risk of forcing convergence to an excited state. (I have yet to find a case where MOM or damping actually led to convergence.) Can this feature be implemented in a future release? In the meantime, is there a way to shift the virtual orbitals up in energy via some code in the input file?
