+ Query the closest object intersecting a ray.
+ </brief_description>
+ <description>
+ A RayCast represents a line from its origin to its destination position, [code]cast_to[/code]. It is used to query the 3D space in order to find the closest object along the path of the ray.
+ RayCast3D can ignore some objects by adding them to the exception list via [code]add_exception[/code] or by setting proper filtering with collision layers and masks.
+ RayCast3D can be configured to report collisions with [Area3D]s ([member collide_with_areas]) and/or [PhysicsBody3D]s ([member collide_with_bodies]).
+ Only enabled raycasts will be able to query the space and report collisions.
+ RayCast3D calculates intersection every physics frame (see [Node]), and the result is cached so it can be used later until the next frame. If multiple queries are required between physics frames (or during the same frame), use [method force_raycast_update] after adjusting the raycast.

+ <description>
+ Updates the collision information for the ray.
