This also helps to overcome some limitations of [Area2D] when used as a continuous detection area, often requiring waiting a couple of frames before collision information is available to [Area2D] nodes, and when using the signals creates unnecessary complexity. The node can detect multiple collision objects, but it's usually used to detect the first collision. [b]Note:[/b] shape casting is more computationally expensive compared to ray casting. </description> |
