Hi Iccy,
Please see section 5.2.3 of Tutorial B1 :
http://ambermd.org/tutorials/basic/tutorial1/section5.htm This will explain
what you are seeing. It is an imaging issue and nothing to worry about. You
can either reimage as explained in the tutorial or set iwrap=1 in the $cntrl
namelist.
All the best
Ross
