Question

Hello

Please i have a problem with my raycast, when i cast a ray, it didn't follow the direction of my player, for exemple when i turn back my player, the ray continue to cast in back of it, it don't turn with my player

I have wrote this line

  fwd = transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward);
     Debug.DrawRay(transform.position,fwd,Color.red);
         if ( Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)) {
             RaycastHit hit;
             if (Physics.Raycast(transform.position, fwd,out hit)) {

here's a picture to better understand

fwd = transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward); and transform.forward are the same thing.

Are you sure that script is attached to the transform performing the rotation or to one of it's child ?

I guess your objects forward vector differs from your models facing? Just use fwd = -transform.forward; in that case.
