This is not some magic setting that will make nice movies. Note that a
"periodic molecule" is different from just normal PBC. Periodic
molecules are "infinite" molecules like sheets, nanotubes, etc. that
have bonds between central image atoms and periodic copies of atoms. If
you needed such a setting and did not use it, likely your simulation
would have collapsed.

Many of the normal trjconv routines could likely help here. Accounting
for PBC effects like these is a standard first step in post-processing
any trajectory.
