Available Scripts

MANDATORY for common paths — read before implementing (do not improvise query APIs from memory):

• direct_space_state_raycast.gd — high-frequency intersect_ray without RayCast nodes.
• query_exclusion_optimization.gd — RID exclude lists so casters never self-hit.
• shapecast_ground_detection.gd — footing / volume casts when thin rays tunnel or miss.

Do NOT Load every script below for one task. Open only the row that matches the decision table.

direct_space_state_raycast.gd

Expert usage of PhysicsDirectSpaceState2D/3D for bypassing node-based overhead in high-frequency queries.

shapecast_ground_detection.gd

Reliable ground/footing detection using volume-based ShapeCast instead of thin rays.

multiple_hit_piercing_ray.gd

Implementing piercing projectiles that detect and return multiple hits in a single line.
