SphereCast misses but RayCast and OverlapSphere don't
I'm brand new to game dev so bear with me.
code in question:
Debug.DrawRay(controller.Eyes.position, controller.Eyes.forward.normalized * controller.Stats.LookRange, Color.green);
var overlappingColliders = Physics.OverlapSphere(controller.Eyes.position, controller.Stats.LookSphereCastRadius);
var rayCastResult = Physics.Raycast(controller.Eyes.position, controller.Eyes.forward.normalized, controller.Stats.LookRange);
var sphereCastResult = Physics.SphereCast(
controller.Eyes.position,
controller.Stats.LookSphereCastRadius,
controller.Eyes.forward.normalized,
out hit,
controller.Stats.LookRange);
if (sphereCastResult
&& hit.collider.CompareTag(
(controller.TeamTag == Tags.BlueTeam)
? Tags.RedTeam
: Tags.BlueTeam))
{
// we see a target that is not on my team
controller.CurrentTarget = hit.transform;
return true;
}
This is pulled from the "PluggableAI" tutorial and works in that project, but not in my project.
I expect my object to see a Cube Collider. I can see it hitting it with Debug.DrawRay. RayCast returns true and OverlapSphere shows the collider as well. So why does SphereCast pass straight through that collider and continue on all the way to the "South Wall" collider a long way across the map?
Hi mate, I think the issue is with your
&& hit.collider.CompareTag(
(controller.TeamTag == Tags.BlueTeam)
? Tags.RedTeam
: Tags.BlueTeam)
try removing that and see if the Spherecast hits then. Because It looks like it should.
I thought so too which is why I moved the sphereCastResult to it's own line outside the original If statement.
If you look at line 12 if (sphereCastResult that value for sphereCastResult is already false so the tag check doesn't interfere at all.
Well....turns out you were right. It also turns out the code I pasted above wasn't exactly what I was working with at the time. I apologize for that.
