Hi Michail,

Ah, so you mean that the positions of the atoms changed. The box is exactly
the same. The reason for the reordering is that Gromacs puts the atoms in
the corresponding rectangular brick, which is more convenient
computationally. Check the section in the manual on PBC. It's explained
there.

Cheers,

Tsjerk
