You need a repulsion goal. Have a look at this reply and the threads linked in it:

Populate Geometry (global control)

Thanks It’s a goal for repulsion with a strength that’s a power of inverse distance - so strong when the points are close, falling off as they are further apart. You could also use elastic spheres (as in the SphereCollide goal) to push things apart, but there strength is a linear function of distance with a hard cutoff, and I find that the falloff from the power law repulsion often results in a nicer distribution. The problem with inverse distance functions though is that you e…
