[Bf-python] multi ray cast proposal

[Kesten Broughton]

Hi Dima,

I agree on the call-back approach,
That's what the bullet engine does, so it might be possible to piggy back
on them.

You mentioned not being sure if a step-and-move-forward would be accurate
enough for you.  What sort of cases are you applying ray casting to?

So can i sign you up for writing some python test scripts if i'm able to
expose the new functionality?  It will probably take a month or so as i've
got a full plate right now.
