I don't understand how this "measures box dimensions"? It looks like it
prints the largest and smallest of the water coordinates. What happens
if you just look at the final line of $NAMEd.inpcrd? That is where the
box dimensions are stored.
Note that "set <unit> box..." does not change any of the coordinates, nor
does it check if the box you are setting is appropriate. It simply adds
whatever box you ask for to the system. If you have a gap in the middle
of your system after a single step, I'm thinking that must have already
been there in the $NAMEc.pdb file: can you check that?
