Hi, @jcchan1112.
You can also try with Geometry.PruneDuplicates from Data-Shapes package.

hi maybe try this:
the python script will collect all duplicated items, then you can use unique list and get the one of the items.

ids = IN[0]
bbox = IN[1]

duplist = []
for i in range(len(ids)):
	temp = []
	for j in range(len(ids)):
		if i != j:
			boo = Geometry.DoesIntersect(bbox[i], bbox[j])
			if boo == True:
				temp.append(ids[i])
				temp.append(ids[j])
				temp.sort()
				break
	duplist.append(temp)

OUT = duplist

Hi, this script is works, but i have a problem
When i use element.delete node, i need play many times and then able to delete duplicate elements, do you know why ?

Thanks

Use List.RestOfItem instead of first item, that way you keep the earliest one in each case and get rid of the rest. If you use firstitem it will keep going until there are no intersections so will need many runs for areas with 2+ connections.
