Hi Ariel,
I am having trouble understanding exactly what you mean. Sometimes with
periodic boundary conditions set to on, it may appear that your biomolecule
is moving outside of the solvent box. It is usually not a problem at all
because the interactions with then solvent are still being modeled. Look at
the opposite face of the box and you may see a cavity in the solvent. This
indicates that the issue is one of visualization and not one concerning the
modelling of the solvent-biomolecule interaction.
Best,
Aaron
