packages

Usually needs these packages:

• camera is for getting the spot in the screen giving direction to vector when it's compared to source position. can only be used on player script.
• nearby holds the castray functions
• util is for defining and handling vectors
• the UI package is extra if something is wanted to show to player.
• Also async package isn't needed if the castray is done in player context

<aside> 💡

it's worthwhile to always take the unneeded packages out of the list in code
