[gmx-users] genbox

[Derrick Guang Yuh Lee]

just curious, but does the, assumably, the gro file you used w/ genbox to
multiple your molecule have a box size? like, if the gro file
theoretically has a box size that is relatively large in comparison to
the molecule, then genbox's stacking could explain the distance in between
the heads of your molecule. that's all i can say... hope you figure it
out.
