Raycast only hitting certain faces

[droleh (drole)]

local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local hum = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local humroot = character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

local function raycast()
	
	local raycastParams = RaycastParams.new()
	raycastParams.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude
	raycastParams.FilterDescendantsInstances = {character}
	
	local raycastOrigin = humroot.Position
	
	local raycastDirection = Vector3.new(0, 0, 1.25)
	
	local raycastHit = workspace:Raycast(raycastOrigin, raycastDirection, raycastParams)
	
	if raycastHit then
		print(raycastHit.Instance)
	end
end

uis.JumpRequest:Connect(raycast)

Does anyone have an idea on how I can fix it? It’s only hitting one face of a part.

You didn’t really describe your problem with much detail, but I can tell you’re probably trying to fire a raycast out from the character’s position in the character’s direction.

To do that, you’d need to use the LookVector property of the root part’s CFrame. The raycast direction is a vector relative to the world which will mean it will always move in the Z direction which is why it only hits one face.

local raycastOrigin = humroot.Position
local raycastDirection = humroot.CFrame.LookVector * 1.25
-- get the direction of the root part (which is length 1) then multiply the length by 1.25
