As I see in the manual, we can get the relative density of a randomly packed particles done by MakeCloud. 

But what about regular orthogonal or hexagonal packings? Is there any built-in function or we measure the density by summing up the volumes of all balls and dividing it to the predicate volume? 

Another case is when we have clumps included, as well. Specially if there are clumps made by overlapping spheres? Is there any density measurement logic or we do it manually?

Thanks for helps!
