Ray.Position giving really weird results

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
1

I’m attempting to create a wall climbing script by using alignposition and alignorientation, however the attachment that should have been at the intersection of the ray is in midair with no parts near?

I have tried to solve this on my own but I just can’t.

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")

uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Space then
		local rayparam = RaycastParams.new()
		rayparam.FilterDescendantsInstances = {plr.Character,game.Workspace.Baseplate}
		rayparam.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Blacklist

		local ray = workspace:Raycast(plr.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").Position, plr.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame.lookVector * 5,rayparam)

		if ray then
			if plr.Character:FindFirstChild("Climbing").Value == false then
				plr.Character:FindFirstChild("Climbing").Value = true
			else
				plr.Character:FindFirstChild("Climbing").Value = true
				
				
				
				local Attachment = Instance.new("Attachment")
				Attachment.Parent = ray.Instance
				Attachment.Position = ray.Position
				
				print(ray.Instance.Position)
				
				local Attachment2 = Instance.new("Attachment")
				Attachment2.Parent = plr.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
				
				
				local bodygyro = Instance.new("AlignOrientation")
				bodygyro.Name = "ClimbGyro"
				bodygyro.MaxTorque = Vector3.new(30000,30000,30000)
				bodygyro.Parent = plr.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
				bodygyro.Attachment0 = Attachment
				bodygyro.Attachment1 = Attachment2
				bodygyro.RigidityEnabled = true
				bodygyro.ReactionTorqueEnabled = true
				
				
				local bodypos = Instance.new("AlignPosition")
				bodypos.Name = "ClimbPosition"
				bodypos.Parent = plr.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
				bodypos.Attachment0 = Attachment
				bodypos.Attachment1 = Attachment2
				bodypos.ReactionForceEnabled = true
			end
		end
	end
end)

ray.Position is the position in reference to 0,0,0 in the world
but since you parented the attachment to the humanoidRootPart, .Position is in reference to the center of the humanoidRootPart

you could set Attachment.WorldPosition instead, or calculate the position
