Help me with raycast bug

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Basically for whatever reason, I can’t headshot players but can headshot enemies with raycast. Anyone know why? Body shots work though.

pretty much only look at the “Fired” function part, and i kinda don’t know how dev forum formats code so yea.

When Raycasting, you should only blacklist yourself to avoid hitting yourself intead of all accesories in the area. FilterDescendantsInstances will already do that for you when placing the character in the array, so there is no need to ad everything. In the case you need to add something else, use RaycastParams:AddToFilter()

Params.FilterDescendantsInstances =  {character}
-- all accessories will be blacklisted regardless
-- thats why its called "Filter Descendants Instances"
  1. You can either add 4 spaces onto any sentence or line.
  2. use 3 backticks ``` to format
#8

He has to blacklist the other accessories in the workspace too

#9

for the workspace blacklist, i did it to test if accessories were the problem, so i put a bacon hair dude which the headshot worked which is weird. ima look back at it again tho.

#10

Tried it, doesn’t work, same outcome. Maybe ill look at other posts to see if anyone has had the same problem.
