Raycast facing down not taking into account angle of a part

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I’m trying to make a raycast face down but it needs to take into account the parts rotation. This is the script im using:

	local rayOrigin = script.Parent.Position + Vector3.new(3,0,0)
	local rayDirection = Vector3.new(0,-1,0)
	local rayLength = 50
	local raycastParams = RaycastParams.new()
	local hitPart, hitPosition = workspace:FindPartOnRayWithIgnoreList(Ray.new(rayOrigin, rayDirection * rayLength), {}, false, true)

The ‘ray direction’ is causing the problem. I’ve tried using FromEulerAngles but that doesn’t work and causes an error. Does anyone know how to achieve this?

Use the CFrame of the part

local direction = part.CFrame:VectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(0, -1, 0))
