There is a wealth of details and curiosities (asymmetries, unexpected positions), but do they matter ?
Some will be artifacts of selection techniques, presentation techniques, truncation.
Avoid getting bogged down in these now until have Geant4 equivalents to compare against, otherwise risk spending time barking up the wrong trees. This will provide a candle against which it should be easier to see which aspects need attention.
So, in summary aim for Geant4 comparison earlier rather than later : once have interface into main features of the propagation. (currently missing surfaces).
Collect G4 steps into VBO like structure ?
Pushing up to –max-slots 30 reduces asymmetry peculiarities a lot. Ten slots (which is effectively 8 slots) is simply not enough. Pushing to –max-slots 100 suffers from crashes when in animation modes and slow interface in other modes.
With selection based on from/to materials. Peculiarities:
