Raycast all (#157): Colliders gained the section on the new node - the parallel lists sorted by distance, a collider counting once while a tilemap counts per cell, "max hits" with 0 for all - and lost the line that only the nearest hit is answered; Behaviors lists the node and says what a travelling list may carry and what happens to it when it is stored; Physics names #154 as the only open point; Architecture carries storedList(); Development carries the check sum 1157

 - In the editor run every ray cast shows in the scene view for a quarter of a second: green to
   where it met something, grey to its end when it met nothing.
-- Only the first hit for now; a list of all hits (#157) comes later.
+- **Raycast** says what it meets *first*; **Raycast all** (below) says everything on the line.
 - A setting reaches a *running* instance only when that instance starts afresh: the interpreter

+## Raycast all
+
+The **Raycast all** node (#157) casts the same ray and hands back everything it meets, for a shot
+that goes through several enemies, a laser, or "what is on this line". It takes the same inputs and
+the same settings as Raycast — **Ignore owner**, **Hit triggers**, **Layers** — plus **max hits**.
+
+- The answer is **parallel lists**, sorted by distance: `objects`, `colliders`, `points x`,
+  `points y`, `normals x`, `normals y`, `distances`, and the plain number `count`. Item `n` of every
+  list belongs to the same hit, so `Item at` with one index reads a whole hit out of them. Lists
+  rather than a run of the flow per hit: that is what `Count`, `Item at` and `Sub list` already work
+  with.
+- `objects` and `colliders` hold **live objects**, not names — `Item at` gives one back as an object,
+  ready for `Destroy`, `Apply force` or `Name of`. A list only carries them while it travels: written
+  into a variable or a property, each object becomes its name, because nothing saved is alive.
+- **A collider counts once**, however many convex pieces its shape falls into, and the hit is the
+  first face the ray enters. A **tilemap** counts once per cell the ray goes through, since a map is
+  many solids under one entity — the `collider` of each of those hits is the tilemap.
+- **max hits** above 0 keeps that many of the nearest and leaves the rest out; 0 (the default) keeps
+  all of them.
+- In the editor run the ray is drawn to the **last** thing it met — that is how far it looked.
