Re: [AMBER] problem with solute that breaks up

Dear David and Amber users,

Unfortunately no luck by adding the option "bymask" as follows:

trajin complex_dyn.mdcrd
center :1-95 mass origin
image origin center bymask :1-95 familiar
trajout complex_dyn.imaged.netcdf netcdf

Again the dimer splits and also the ligand separates from the dimer (as before).
Moreover in some output snapshots, the whole box translates.

Any suggestion on how to fix this issue?

Thanks!
M
