I don't know if this will be of any use but my way around this was as
follows:
I ran a constant pressure equilibration of my system in a periodic box
of water until I got a good density.
I then cut out a sphere of the radius I wanted and used it in my
non-periodic (droplet) calculations.
If you are interested and need any help with this procedure, please feel
free to ask.
Good luck.
