The recommended bond communication distance no longer depends on bond failure
coefficients (which are ignored) but instead corresponds to the typical heurestic
maximum strain used by typical non-bpm bond styles. One cannot use *break no*

maximum strain used by typical non-bpm bond styles. Similar behavior to *break no*
can also be attained by setting arbitrarily high values for all four failure
coefficients. One cannot use *break no* with *smooth yes*.
If the *store/local* keyword is used, an internal fix will track bonds that
break during the simulation. Whenever a bond breaks, data is processed
