Hello,
First off this plug-in is incredible! Very powerful and well developed. I am writing to ask to learn a bit more about collisions with respect to distributing in this case blocks that represent plants for a planting layout.
What I am struggling with is being able to create "circle packing" for variable distances between entity. Basically I have planting symbols that are circle that represent the desired spacing for a plant. I would like to use the procedural clustering to create a patchwork distribution (see figure 1 for what I would like to have happen)

Generally creating a distribution with the procedural clustering works perfectly for my intent with even spacing so long as the spacing matches the plant block diameter (see figure 2).

what I'm wondering is if there is a way to have the spacing be dynamic to each entity so the result does not have any overlaps (see figure 3)
