I tested on your system and got good results.
There is still a tricky issue: the pull COM is still determined
in the "standard" way by summing distances from the pbcatom.
Therefore atoms should not change nearest image from he pbcatom.
This would result in nasty noise in the pull COM and force.

I would suggest that you try to run the master branch and check
if that works.
