Hello,
You can cluster your snapshots and extract representative snapshots.
Another approach is to find the energy of every snapshot (you can do this by
setting imin=5 and setting maxcyc=1, as described in the manual), and then
choosing the lowest energy snapshots to run QM/MM calculations on. The
average structure, however, will have rotationally degenerate atoms
superimposed on one another, and may be quite distorted.
Good luck!
