Raycast returning nil although it seemingly shouldn't

[harsh aspen]

trajectory highlight in which the issue is clearly visible

Sorry bro but I aint reading allat

Can u say it in less words?

[harsh aspen]

of course

basically i am casting rays through a basepart but although it visually intersects, the result is nil

the image shows the waypoints of the trajectory, which as you can see go through the baseplate

Let me go in vsc and read that code

Brb

[harsh aspen]

thanks

[ebon scaffold]

Im not sure whats the error but try to change,

local result = workspace:Raycast(Shell.Position, targetPosition) to local result = workspace:Raycast(Shell.Position, targetPosition - Shell.Position)

Oh wait

There are more parts of code

Forgor to read everything

💀

[harsh aspen]

you are very possibly right

don't bother

i put in a position not a direction

which is incorrect

[ebon scaffold]

It needs a vector3

Argument

So yes

If it dont help tell me, i will continue to read other parts u sent

[harsh aspen]

well that doesn't seem to change much apparently

[ebon scaffold]

well

thats very sad

[harsh aspen]

i'll try and dig more, but thanks for your help

[ebon scaffold]

maybe

the shell movement

too fast

it might pass through the baseplate between two heartbeat events without being detected by the raycast

use Workspace:Raycast with RaycastParams parameter

and set the FilterType property to Enum.RaycastFilterType.Blacklist

also

CollisionGroup property to Debris

so u will detect

collisions

that dont collide

wait that sounds

weird

mhmm no idea

[harsh aspen]

tried largely increasing the baseplate's Y size so the moving object would certainly stay in it for more than seconds, but it doesn't change much either

[harsh aspen]

and i don't think filters are the way to go since since i really just want any basepart which has CanCollide to true
