   @0verFull And if you want to know how that actually works behind the scenes:
   Just some simple geometry!

   distanceSquared if using it a lot. (With of course squaring your seeked distance too)
   
   Basically doesn't use expensive Math.sqrt method.

   Math.sqrt isn't expensive. The difference between the distance() and distanceSquared() is a fraction of the time it takes to call the method.
