Hi Eugen,
you can save the position of particles using export module [1] or you can
write your own function creating text file with position and size of all
particles.

> Is this possible?
> I already did save simulation as an .xml file but im not sure whether i

> simulation and continue with a diffrent .py script then I used when i saved
