Outer pipe has to be filled with vacuum. There we have also TRK layers, which we don't want to depend on the pipe volume.
Strategy used here is to use a composite shape where shapes of TRK layers are subtracted to the vacuum volume.
For A3PIP-only simulations, we don't want TRK's shade.
Eventually, we will depend on some information passed from the outside.

With TRK:

Without TRK:

ligh-green is the vacuum.

Thanks to @mario6829 for guiding me in the troubleshooting.
