I tried to make npc AI that detects players in sight and track, but raycast does not work properly,
as it prints parts that’s included in raycast filter.
ray.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Blacklist
local rayFilter = {}
for _, part in pairs(script.Parent:GetDescendants()) do
if part:IsA("BasePart") then
table.insert(rayFilter, part)
end
end
for _, part in pairs(workspace:GetDescendants()) do
if part:IsA("BasePart") then
if part.Transparency > 0.5 then
table.insert(rayFilter, part)
end
end
end
ray.FilterDescendantsInstances = rayFilter
print(ray.FilterDescendantsInstances)
local raycastLine = math.sqrt(stat.raycastCount.Value)
local raycastDistance = stat.raycastDistance.Value
local headCF = head.CFrame
for countV = -raycastLine, raycastLine do
for countH = -raycastLine, raycastLine do
local result = workspace:Raycast(headCF.Position, (headCF * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(countH), math.rad(countV))).LookVector * raycastDistance)
if result then
print(result.Instance:GetFullName())
for _, player in pairs(game:GetService("Players"):GetChildren()) do
pcall(function()
if player.Character then
if result.Instance:IsDescendantOf(player.Character) then
if not table.find(target, player.Character) then
table.insert(targets, player.Character)
status = "tracking"
print("found entity")
end
end
end
end)
end
end
end
end
output:
{ --this is raycast filter descendants instances
~
Workspace.Sniper.BFG 50.Laser2Node
~
}
–this is raycast.Instance:GetFullName() output
Workspace.Sniper.BFG 50.Laser2Node
it printed Laser2Node even Laser2Node is included in filter descendants instances.
