Added a note at the bottom of the API doc page for Model.raytest() informing readers of the nil return value, when no geometry is "hit."

guys i think you are right, the hits array is empty. the ray isn't hitting any geometry. Still trying to find out why though

Rather than start with convoluted code try a simple 'one-liner' pasted into the Ruby Console...
Draw two rectangular faces place them one above the other, above the origin.

rt=true;p=ORIGIN;while rt;p rt=Sketchup.active_model.raytest(p,Z_AXIS);p=rt[0]if rt;end

it should produce something like this
[Point3d(0, 0, 16.9685), [#<Sketchup::Face:0xbea3ae8>]] [Point3d(0, 0, 39.3701), [#<Sketchup::Face:0xbea3ad4>]] nil
NOW you know it's working........
