A raycast represents a ray from its origin to its [member target_position] that finds the closest [CollisionObject3D] along its path, if it intersects any.
A raycast represents a ray from its origin to its [member target_position] that finds the closest object along its path, if it intersects any.
[RayCast3D] can ignore some objects by adding them to an exception list, by making its detection reporting ignore [Area3D]s ([member collide_with_areas]) or [PhysicsBody3D]s ([member collide_with_bodies]), or by configuring physics layers.
[RayCast3D] calculates intersection every physics frame, and it holds the result until the next physics frame. For an immediate raycast, or if you want to configure a [RayCast3D] multiple times within the same physics frame, use [method force_raycast_update].
To sweep over a region of 3D space, you can approximate the region with multiple [RayCast3D]s or use [ShapeCast3D].

[b]Note:[/b] This object is not guaranteed to be a [CollisionObject3D]. For example, if the ray intersects a [CSGShape3D] or a [GridMap], the method will return a [CSGShape3D] or [GridMap] instance.
