Hello Norman, The geometry exists in the iss40 branch as detector "HPS-PhysicsRun2016-HodoscopeDualPlane-v0-2pt3-fieldmap". I'm confident that there is no intersection, though - it was just a scoring plane that is fairly close to the edge of the vacuum box, but now that I got the Python script working, I was able to visually verify that it does not intersect. It's never a bad idea to verify, but if it is overly complicated to do, you don't need to worry about it.
