[gmx-users] Getting out of the box!!!

[Tsjerk Wassenaar]

Marcelo,

Have you considered reading the FAQ, searching the mailing list, reading the
manual or just paying attention? Just yesterday there was mention of a
ligand jumping out of the box, to which several replies were given and your
exact question is asked on this list at least every month!

I'll keep my temper. It's just due to the periodic boundary conditions,
nothing wrong, you can use trjconv with option -pbc nojump afterwards or you
can set comm_mode to linear with the protein as comm_group. Now please read
the manual on periodic boundary conditions and for further reference search
the mail list (e.g. "periodic boundary conditions", "PBC", "jumping",
etc...)
