If you send me a section of your Twig Geo, I'll take a look at the best 
approach

Subject: Re: ICE - generating particles at lowest points on geometry

Ideally the small branch has twigs which are all merged into one geometry, 
so no SRT info per twig, but if it would make it easier I could cut it up.

There will be smaller twigs and buds which will all create low points where 
drops should gather. It would of course be nice if I could introduce some 
randomness so not all twigs have drops as some would have dripped off. I 
don't need animation though - it is a short clip.
