The input above is for 5ns, and would generate 10000 snapshots. It's not
clear how you created the "35ns" trajectory.

If you (say) did 7 such runs, then you would have 35 ns of trajectories,
saved at 0.5ps intervals, for a total of 70000 snapshots. If you computed an
angle for each snapshot, you would get 70000 numbers, which sounds like what
you report. But I'm really guessing here: you didn't really report enough
information to allow me to be sure of anything.

Since you didn't give the ptraj inputs, it's pretty hard to tell what is going
on. Ptraj will tell you how many snapshots you have, which may help.
