@tcmoore3 Could you add a short howto guide in hoomd for a square well potential? These consist of one fully functioning example code along with a brief description (see https://hoomd-blue.readthedocs.io/en/v3.9.0/howto/molecular.html for the only current example).
The commonly used isotropic potential id square well, and the reason one would want to use HPMC is when they have a discontinuous potential.
Fixed in #1508.
Tutorial description
This is inspired by the tutorial on how to model patchy particles with HPMC glotzerlab/hoomd-examples#84. The goal of this guide: demonstrate how to add isotropic interactions in HPMC. Like in glotzerlab/hoomd-examples#84, it would be helpful to mention the commonly used potentials, why one might want to use this, etc.
