Re: charm-gui membrane builder

Some questions about system constructions.

I've successfully equilibrate my system consisted of the neutralized
bilayer. But after protein insertion (this protein has total charge +1)
some charged lipids was removed. Then I remove all initial ions placed by
charm-gui and make new ionization.

after this step ionization I've obtained

Info) Opened coordinate file ionized.pdb for writing.
Info) Finished with coordinate file ionized.pdb.
Autoionize) System net charge after adding ions: -0.4259657543152571e.

How It could be fixed ?
