Roblox physics and spatial queries

Spatial queries (use these, not Touched, for gameplay decisions)

--!strict
local params = RaycastParams.new()
params.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude
params.FilterDescendantsInstances = {} -- e.g. { character } of the shooter
params.IgnoreWater = true

local function castRay(origin: Vector3, direction: Vector3): RaycastResult?
	-- direction's length is the max distance
	return workspace:Raycast(origin, direction, params)
end
