I am creating water droplets on the outer surface of a bottle by scattering a hemisphere using the scatter compound object. However, many of the droplets are intersecting. If I collapse the droplets into a single mesh or poly is it possible to use maxscript to quickly select all elements that are overlapping / intersecting in 3D space and delete them. Right now I am doing it manually with thousands of droplets and can never be sure if I missed some. Using Max 2010.

Thanks a ton in advance.
