```

## Examples

```csharp
// Cast a circle and return every hit, sorted by ascending distance.
using UnityEngine;
using Unity.Collections;
using Unity.U2D.Physics;

public class WorldCastModeExample : MonoBehaviour
{
    void Start()
    {
        PhysicsWorld world = PhysicsWorld.defaultWorld;
        CircleGeometry geometry = new CircleGeometry { radius = 0.5f };
        Vector2 translation = new Vector2(0f, -10f);
        PhysicsQuery.QueryFilter filter = new PhysicsQuery.QueryFilter();

        using NativeArray<PhysicsQuery.WorldCastResult> results = world.CastGeometry(geometry, translation, filter, PhysicsQuery.WorldCastMode.AllSorted, Allocator.Temp);
    }
}
