Dear Qi,
for appropriate use of Lattice card, please take a look
at the following lecture from the last FLUKA beginners' course in Spain,
slides 19-32:

https://indico.cern.ch/event/753612/contributions/3121526/attachments/1974593/3285978/Geometry2_2019.pdf

As you can see there, the prototype has to be defined in detail,
and can be placed anywhere in your geometry.
Instead, the replica is an EMPTY container, that has to be placed
in the correct position of the replica.

The transformation has to be defined such to bring the container
to the prototype (and not vice versa).
To define the transformation, you can use the ROT-DEFI card.


Finally, to obtain the 100 replicas, you can either do it manually in flair,
defining 100 replicas in the geometry and the associated transformations,
or you can write an external routine (in fortran, C, C++, python, ... )
that generates an output text file of the form of the FLUKA cards
(Lattice and rot-defi, in this case), with all needed information.

You can then copy and paste the text file in your FLUKA input file,
opening it with any text editor.
Writing such external routine should be rather easy
when there is some order in the x, y and z coordinates,
as it seems to be in your case.

I hope this help.

Best regards
