Hi yt-ers, This may seem a stupid question but I haven't found anything in the documentation that explains it in detail. How does yt deal with accessing data outside the domain boundaries? For example, I notice that, if creating a sphere around domain left edge yt by default wraps around to the opposite edge of the domain assuming a periodic boundary condition and access data from there, while it doesn't do so for covering grids. Is there an option I can decide if I want to wrap around the domain or not based on the boundary condition that I am using? Thanks!
I think you are running into this issue:
https://github.com/yt-project/yt/issues/1209
In principle the covering grid should respect the underlying periodic
boundary condition, but it doesn't currently do that.

Looks like it's still an open issue. I'll try to go around with it as of now but can we update the documentation about it?
