              Raycast returns null for no apparent reason
Ok, so quick question, I made a simple:
 Ray ray;
Then in the update() I made a simple:
 ray = Camera.current.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
 Debug.Log(Camera.current.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition));
And for some reason, in the console, the debug.log registers a ray being casted while ray just thinks it's null.
Any ideas?
This is the debug.log output: https://i.stack.imgur.com/OpXFG.png

In case I overlooked something, here's the full script:

 public GameObject UI;
 public BoxCollider HitBox;

 {
 Properties = GetComponentInChildren<DoEverything>(); //Get the DoEverything script
 childObj = Properties.InstancedEntity; //Get the object it will spawn
 if (mrHighlight.enabled != false && mrHighlight != null) //Make sure the highlight isn't enabled and not null
 {
     mrHighlight.enabled = false;
 }
 skinnedMeshRenderersScan = childObj.GetComponentsInChildren<SkinnedMeshRenderer>(); //Looks for all skinned mesh renderers in child object
 foreach (SkinnedMeshRenderer element in skinnedMeshRenderersScan) //For every object it finds
 {
     if (!skinnedMeshRenderersList.Contains(element)) //If it isn't already in this list
     {
         skinnedMeshRenderersList.Add(element); //Add to the list
     }
 }

 transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position,
                                         targetPosition,
                                         speed * Time.deltaTime);
 if (transform.position == targetPosition)
 {
     Moving = false;
 }
 }
 void Update()
 {

 {
     LClickRay();
