For some reason the raycast that I’m creating wont return anything. It’s always equal to nil and I have no idea why. Any help is appreciated.
function HammerFunctions:Follow(player,hammer)
local pos = workspace.campos
local mouse = player:GetMouse()
RS.Heartbeat:Connect(function()
local prams = RaycastParams.new()
prams.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Include
prams.FilterDescendantsInstances = {workspace.Baseplate}
local ray = workspace:Raycast(pos.Position,mouse.Hit.Position)
if ray then
print("hit")
hammer.Position = Vector3.new(ray.Position.X,10,ray.Position.Z)
else
print("none")
end
end)
end
I am pretty sure the Recasting is working well. You have to remember your code only raycasts “Baseplate”. The line from pos.Position to mouse.Hit.Position should go through the Baseplate. Try printing out “Mouse.Hit.Position”. And try putting this code on top of your script:
You never passed in the ray params…
also your ray direction is supposed to be mouse.Hit.Position-rayOrigin
Also… Idk if you know this but if ray then will only be true if the ray hits something with a position, so if you shoot it at the sky it wont run. Idk if that was intentional or not
Also, you messed up with setting the actual position of the hammer
local ray = workspace:Raycast(pos.Position, Mouse.Hit.Position-pos.Position, prams)
hammer.Position = Vector3.new(ray.Instance.Position.X,10,ray.Instance.Position.Z)
The second argument of workspace:Raycast takes a directional vector, you only provided a position meaning that the ray didn’t cast anywhere. You can instead use (pos.Position - mouse.Hit.Position) to fix this, as @SteveoAttano said. Also, you didn’t provide the RaycastParams in the workspace:Raycast.
