I guess that if one adds an EDO or GOL to a water position, and does not delete the water, Coots wonderful real space refinement might place some atoms right on top of each other. My advice would be to first delete the water, before adding something else to the blob.

(we live in different worlds, it seems). At a guess you have put one atom on top of another. If I were to guess again, it would be a water and your EDO and GOL are not involved in this problem. Paul.
