    Performs a ray trace that checks for block collisions using the blocks' precise collision shapes.
    If collisions with passable blocks are ignored, fluid collisions are ignored as well regardless of the fluid collision mode.

    direction - the ray direction
    
    maxDistance - the maximum distance

```
    Performs a ray trace that checks for both block and entity collisions.
    Block collisions use the blocks' precise collision shapes. The raySize parameter is only taken into account for entity collision checks.
    If collisions with passable blocks are ignored, fluid collisions are ignored as well regardless of the fluid collision mode.
    Portal blocks are only considered passable if the ray starts within them. Apart from that collisions with portal blocks will be considered even if collisions with passable blocks are otherwise ignored.
    This may cause loading of chunks! Some implementations may impose artificial restrictions on the maximum distance.
    
    Parameters:
    
    start - the start location
    
    direction - the ray direction
    
    maxDistance - the maximum distance
    
    fluidCollisionMode - the fluid collision mode
    
    ignorePassableBlocks - whether to ignore passable but collidable blocks (ex. tall grass, signs, fluids, ..)
    
    raySize - entity bounding boxes will be uniformly expanded (or shrinked) by this value before doing collision checks
    
    filter - only entities that fulfill this predicate are considered, or null to consider all entities
    
    Returns:
    
    the closest ray trace hit result with either a block or an entity, or null if there is no hit

long getTicksPerMonsterSpawns()
```
    Gets the world's ticks per monster spawns value
    This value determines how many ticks there are between attempts to spawn monsters.
    Example Usage:
    
    A value of 1 will mean the server will attempt to spawn monsters in this world every tick.
    A value of 400 will mean the server will attempt to spawn monsters in this world every 400th tick.
    A value below 0 will be reset back to Minecraft's default.
    
    Note: If set to 0, monsters spawning will be disabled for this world. We recommend using setSpawnFlags(boolean, boolean) to control this instead.
    Minecraft default: 1.

@Nullable
@Nullable Location locateNearestStructure(@NotNull
                                          @NotNull Location origin,
                                          @NotNull
                                          @NotNull StructureType structureType,
                                          int radius,
                                          boolean findUnexplored)
```
    Find the closest nearby structure of a given StructureType. Finding unexplored structures can, and will, block if the world is looking in chunks that gave not generated yet. This can lead to the world temporarily freezing while locating an unexplored structure.
    The radius is not a rigid square radius. Each structure may alter how many chunks to check for each iteration. Do not assume that only a radius x radius chunk area will be checked. For example, StructureType.WOODLAND_MANSION can potentially check up to 20,000 blocks away (or more) regardless of the radius used.
    This will not load or generate chunks. This can also lead to instances where the server can hang if you are only looking for unexplored structures. This is because it will keep looking further and further out in order to find the structure.
    
    Parameters:
    
    origin - where to start looking for a structure
    
    structureType - the type of structure to find
    
    radius - the radius, in chunks, around which to search
    
    findUnexplored - true to only find unexplored structures
    
    Returns:
    
    the closest Location, or null if no structure of the specified type exists.
  - getViewDistance
```
int getViewDistance()
```
    Returns the view distance used for this world.
    
    Returns:
    
    the view distance used for this world

@Nullable
@Nullable Raid locateNearestRaid(@NotNull
                                 @NotNull Location location,
                                 int radius)
```
    Finds the nearest raid close to the given location.
    
    Parameters:
    
    location - the origin location
    
    radius - the radius
    
    Returns:
    
    the closest Raid, or null if no raids were found
  - getRaids
```
@NotNull
@NotNull List<Raid> getRaids()
```
    Gets all raids that are going on over this world.
    
    Returns:
    
    the list of all active raids
  - getEnderDragonBattle
```
@Nullable
@Nullable DragonBattle getEnderDragonBattle()
```
    Get the DragonBattle associated with this world. If this world's environment is not World.Environment.THE_END, null will be returned.
    If an end world, a dragon battle instance will be returned regardless of whether or not a dragon is present in the world or a fight sequence has been activated. The dragon battle instance acts as a state holder.
    
    Returns:
    
    the dragon battle instance
