Than you Ross for your quick reply.
First thing to say, i am not using this flag. But as far as i know in
the manual it says that flag/option doesn't has no effect on either
force or energy calculations. That is why i didn't use it. I can turn
it on and check if same problem appears. But at the same time, i am
just in the middle of a long calculation, so then another question
appears in my mind. If i continue with iwrap flag/option, should i
expect any important difference in the simulation results ? You
definitely know much more than me about amber, can you tell me if it
is safe ?
