+/**
+  This class implements a more or less efficient collision system based on nested hitzones.
+  Instead of using a brute force approach (try if any hitzone intersects with any other hitzone)
+  this features a tree of spheric hitzones. Only some of them are actually the solid groundstones
+  the collision model bases on, the others serve to group them into sets of spheres that are only
+  checked for collision when the assigned top level sphere has registered a collision, preventing
+  unnessessary checks (like between every sphere of two collision clusters at the other end of the world)
+  from being performed.
+  The CollisionCluster features collision detection between multiple CollisionClusters as well as
+  traceing a collision between a line of defined length and a cluster. In both cases the base spheres
+  that have intersected are marked with a flag in an unsigned long for hitlocation queries. In the case
+  of a trace, the exact point of interception is returned as well.
