Ah, I think I misunderstood your problem. If you added ions, ran
simulations, and saw that many ions moved outside the box, then it is
just an issue of imaging, and Carlos' answer applies.
I thought you used VMD to add ions, and they were placed outside the
solvent box. In that case, we won't be able to provide much help with
that (or at least not as much as the VMD mailing list).
All the best,
Jason
