Using a Ray to make circles wont center around the player

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    Used a Raycast to create rocks around the player to make it look like a crater

  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    The circle is not centered where the player is, its offset is a bit to the side.

  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I’ve tried going to Discord hidden devs, no one knew the solution, i posted in here a couple of times and no one responded, and i looked around on devforum and no one had this problem before.

--Code for positioning the rocks--
local rx = pos.X + rnd:NextNumber(-1,1)
			local rz = pos.Z + rnd:NextNumber(-1, 1)
			local lookAt = Vector3.new(rx, pos.Y, rz)

			local orientation = Vector3.new(rnd:NextNumber(-60, 60), rnd:NextNumber(-60, 60), rnd:NextNumber(-60, 60))
			local lv = CFrame.new(pos, lookAt).LookVector
			local position = pos + (lv * radius * math.clamp(h/numCircles, 0.5, 1))
			local cf = CFrame.new(position, pos + lv + orientation)
--Note: The "pos" is just HumanoidRootPart.Position, and yes, i have tried HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position and it still didnt center--

local floorRay = workspace:Raycast(cf.Position + Vector3.new(0, 3, 0), position - Vector3.new(0, 100, 0), rp)
				
			if floorRay and floorRay.Instance.Anchored then
				local colour = floorRay.Instance.Color
				local mat = floorRay.Instance.Material

				rock.Size = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)
				rock.Position = floorRay.Position
				rock.Orientation = orientation
				rock.CanCollide = false
				rock.Anchored = true
				rock.TopSurface = Enum.SurfaceType.Smooth
				rock.Color = colour or Color3.fromRGB(83, 86, 90)
				rock.Material = mat or Enum.Material.Slate

				rock.Parent = workspace["Effects"]

				TweenModule.obj(rock, "Quad", "Out", 0.2, {Size = rockSize})

				task.spawn(function()
					task.wait(5)

					local fallTween = ts:Create(rock, rocksTI, {Position = rock.Position - Vector3.new(0, rock.Size.Y/2, 0)})
					fallTween:Play()
					fallTween.Completed:Wait()

					rock:Destroy()
				end)
			end

Heres what the crater looks like:
