+ <brief_description>
+ Node for physics collision sweep and immediate overlap queries. Similar to the [RayCast2D] node.
+ </brief_description>
+ <description>
+ Shape casting allows to detect collision objects by sweeping the [member shape] along the cast direction determined by [member target_position] (useful for things like beam weapons).
+ Immediate collision overlaps can be done with the [member target_position] set to [code]Vector2(0, 0)[/code] and by calling [method force_shapecast_update] within the same [b]physics_frame[/b]. 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 usually the first detected collision
+ [b]Note:[/b] shape casting is more computationally expensive compared to ray casting.

+ <methods>
+ <method name="add_exception">
+ <return type="void" />
+ <argument index="0" name="node" type="CollisionObject2D" />
+ <description>
+ Adds a collision exception so the shape does not report collisions with the specified [CollisionObject2D] node.
+ </description>
+ </method>
+ <method name="add_exception_rid">
+ <return type="void" />
+ <argument index="0" name="rid" type="RID" />
+ <description>
+ Adds a collision exception so the shape does not report collisions with the specified [RID].
+ </description>
+ </method>
+ <method name="clear_exceptions">
+ <return type="void" />
+ <description>
+ Removes all collision exceptions for this shape.
+ </description>
+ </method>
+ <method name="force_shapecast_update">
+ <return type="void" />
+ <description>
+ Updates the collision information for the shape. Use this method to update the collision information immediately instead of waiting for the next [code]_physics_process[/code] call, for example if the shape or its parent has changed state.
+ [b]Note:[/b] [code]enabled == true[/code] is not required for this to work.

+ <method name="get_closest_collision_safe_fraction" qualifiers="const">
+ <return type="float" />
+ <description>
+ The fraction of the motion (between 0 and 1) of how far the shape can move without triggering a collision. The motion is determined by [member target_position].
+ </description>
+ </method>
+ <method name="get_closest_collision_unsafe_fraction" qualifiers="const">
+ <return type="float" />
+ <description>
+ The fraction of the motion (between 0 and 1) when the shape triggers a collision. The motion is determined by [member target_position].
+ </description>
+ </method>

+ <return type="Object" />
+ <argument index="0" name="index" type="int" />
+ <description>
+ Returns the [Object] of one of the multiple collisions at [code]index[/code], or [code]null[/code] if no object is intersecting the shape (i.e. [method is_colliding] returns [code]false[/code]).

+ <return type="int" />
+ <argument index="0" name="index" type="int" />
+ <description>
+ Returns the shape ID of one of the multiple collisions at [code]index[/code] that the shape intersects, or [code]0[/code] if no object is intersecting the shape (i.e. [method is_colliding] returns [code]false[/code]).
+ </description>
+ </method>
+ <method name="get_collision_count" qualifiers="const">
+ <return type="int" />
+ <description>
+ The number of collisions detected at the point of impact. Use this to iterate over multiple collisions as provided by [method get_collider], [method get_collider_shape], [method get_collision_point], and [method get_collision_normal] methods.
