Summary
In
Molecule.get_boxed_structure
, whenreorder=False
, in the current version of the code does not use the processed new coordinates, but the initial ones of the Molecule. This usually results for example in a Molecule not being centered in the box.Unless I am missing something there should be no reason not to use the modified coordinates in the case of
reorder=False
. This PR switches to use the same coordinates independently of the final sorting.I added a test based on the coordinates that would have failed in the previous implementation due to the molecule not being centered in the box.
