Hello Dave, Thank you for confirmation.
In case someone would have same collision trouble, I notices that rendering shields before cities' names give a far better result than the opposite. I think the "rule" to make out around that is : render at first object with the highest "min_distance" value. they will have more space to place themselves and then object with a smaller min distance will "fill the gaps". Hope it helps Nicolas.
