Either collision detection or picking. Picking, if wisely implemented,
WILL work much faster than current collision detection, with MUCH more
flexibility, with DOUBLE-MUCH accuracy. I did use built-in collision
detection, and can say that u'd have a lot of problems (resolvable
though) in the future unless your task is not just detecting the fact
of collisions with a few objects positioned relatively far from each
other.
In your case i'd have definitely spent some time to create my own
collision detection via picking. The time spent on this does worth the
task.
