Hi Isaak. Unfortunately, this isn't really possible at the moment,
unless you do Gibbs ensemble Monte Carlo and make the second box huge,
i.e. essentially a reservoir. Of course, if you're using any grid-
based method to compute the energy (Quickstep, Ewald) this adds a
whole lot of expense to the simulation as well, and probably isn't
worth it.
GCMC has been in the pipeline for a while (there have been issues with
the choice of reference state for QS calculations with GCMC), and is
the next big project on my list. I'm about 30% done with the current
project (making the MC routines more streamlined), so it might get
implemented in the next year...but that's just a guess. Could be six
months, could be a couple years, so if you're working on a major
project, it's probably best to use a different code. Sorry!
Cheers, Matt
