We are happy to announce the second patch release in the 3.0 series of **Allpix Squared, version 3.0.2**.
This release contains 11 merge requests with 43 commits over the previous patch version 3.0.1 and fixes a few issues found over the summer.
The release is available as Docker image, CVMFS installation and source code from the [repository](https://gitlab.cern.ch/allpix-squared/allpix-squared/).
The following issues have been resolved and improvements have been made:
<!--more-->
* **Core**:
* Correctly calculate the intersection of particles with rectangular implants. Before any configured offset from the center was ignored.
* The geometry manager is not not thrown off by invalid configuration files in model search directories, they are simply ignored.
* **Module GeometryBuilderG4:**
* Enable discovery of newer Geant4 installations which do not set data directory environment variables individually anymore (G4 > 11.0)
* **Module DepositionGeant4:**
* Do not manually register radioactive decay physics lists when using the `_HP` (high precision) pre-defined lists as they already contain the radioactive decay lists.
* When calculating the number of generated electron-hole pairs, do not truncate the result since this causes a bias towards lower energies.
* **Module DetectorHistogrammer:**
* Correctly generate the hitmap in global coordinates
* The boundaries of the global hitmap are now calculated around the global position of the respective sensor.
* **Module ROOTObjectWriter:**
* The module now prints warnings of the current configuration would lead to excessive amounts of data being written. This does
not affect the capabilities of the module but just adds a warning for unusual and possibly undesired configurations
* **Continuous Integration / Build System:**
* Switched to Kaniko Docker image building environment
* When looking for unit tests, ignore files lacking the proper extension in CMake
