This sounds like an imaging problem. The problem is that only one periodic
image has its coordinates saved to the trajectory file. Therefore, you're
visualizing water molecules from a bunch of different boxes as some water
molecules diffuse out of the current box. In the simulation, each other
water molecule is still there in terms of force calculations, but they're
not written to the trajectory file so you can see them.
You can use the variable iwrap=1 in sander/pmemd input file to wrap
molecules leaving the box into the other side. This is discussed to a great
extent here on the list. You can also use the center and image commands in
ptraj to accomplish the same thing.
Hope this helps,
Jason
