Re: [AMBER] iwrap on very long simulation

Thank you Jason.

When I was not using iwrap=1, after ~ 60 ns or so I was getting
coordinates overflow warning. Now I will try to use ioutfm=1 and ntxo=2
for my new simulations. Hoping it won't give any problem. If we get such
problem again can we change it back to iwrap=1?
