>From my limited experience,

...Also, VMD makes this easier.  I learned the hard way to center on a molecule when making the initial box in editconf.  Otherwise varied combinations of the -mol, -pbc , -nojump -center options usually work, but never consitent at least for me.  Still, if its 4 small molecules it might not make a difference if the other 3 keep moving out of the box.

The only differences I noticed in analyzing these was with distances, and geometric math functions, in which case you would have to analyze each moleucle centered in the .trj (ie 3-4 different centered versions of the same initial .trj) seperat. All the energy and force values were independent of this though.

Good luck
