An algorithm for the random walk problem of multiple elastic collisions between newly formed non-thermal neutral cometary radicals and the outflowing cometary molecules was incorporated into the Monte Carlo particle-trajectory model. Preliminary model analysis has shown that the effects of collision on the observed spatial distribution of cometary radicals becomes important for the larger bright comets, especially at smaller values of the helicocentric distance. The model and early results are discussed herein.
