Question by fractalgloom · Feb 20, 2016 at 02:38 PM · raycast2d-platformershooterraycasthit2d2d platformer

2D Platformer Shooting - Raycast Issue

I am having trouble shooting a ray from a Child object of the Player, in a direction for a certain distance. What keeps happening is, the ray shoots from the player, but it goes to a predetermined point. So I could be moving and facing right, and if I pass the predetermined point, the ray shoots left. Always to the exact same point, and the point it's shooting to is different for every direction. This is the code I have for when the player is facing right.

 if (faceDir == faceDirection.Right) {
             Vector2 firePointPosition = new Vector2(firePoint.position.x, firePoint.position.y);
             RaycastHit2D hit = Physics2D.Raycast (firePointPosition, transform.right, 10, whatToHit);
             Debug.DrawLine (firePointPosition, aimingPosition*10, Color.cyan);
             if (hit.collider != null) {
                 Debug.Log ("Test");
                 Debug.DrawLine (firePointPosition, hit.point, Color.red);
             }
