Physic SphereCast hits null
So I have the following code:
private bool Look(StateController controller)
{
RaycastHit hit;
Debug.DrawRay (controller.eyes.position, controller.eyes.forward.normalized * controller.viewDistance, Color.green);
int b = LayerMask.GetMask("Terrain");
if (Physics.SphereCast (controller.eyes.position, controller.fieldOfViewAngle, controller.eyes.forward, out hit, controller.viewDistance, b)
&& hit.collider.CompareTag ("Player"))
{
controller.mCombatant.Target = hit.transform;
controller.chaseTarget = hit.transform;
return true;
} else
{
return false;
}
}
What I want with this is basically to ignore the layer Terrain and cast a ray to see if I hit my player.
However, even if I step directly in front of this cast the hit is null
Can anyone tell me what I've done wrong?
You're using the layermask incorrectly. Here your sphere cast will only collide with "Terrain" if you want to collide with all but terrain, you sould invert the mask
int b = ~LayerMask.GetMask("Terrain");
