raycast problem

[timid junco]

i cant drag the item once i look up at the sky

local function RaycastResulting()
    local ScreenPosition = Crosshair.AbsolutePosition + Crosshair.AbsoluteSize / 2
    local unitray = cam:ScreenPointToRay(ScreenPosition.X, ScreenPosition.Y)

    local rayOrigin = unitray.Origin
    local rayDirection = unitray.Direction * 1000 -- 1000 studs in front

    local result = workspace:Raycast(rayOrigin, rayDirection)
    
    return result
end

            local RayResult = RaycastResulting()
            local TargetPosition 
            
            if RayResult then
                TargetPosition = RayResult.Position
            else
                local lookVector = plr.Character.Head.CFrame.LookVector
                TargetPosition = plr.Character.Head.Position + lookVector * HoldRange
            end
            
            BodyPosition.Position = plr.Character.Head.Position + CFrame.new(plr.Character.Head.Position, TargetPosition).LookVector*HoldRange

casting rays towards the sky returns nothing, you'd need to calculate the end position

im new to this raycasting thing, i really dont know nothing about it and im just learning more about it until i stumble upon this bug that i somehow cant even fix

raycasts only work when it hits a 3D object. If it doesnt hit or you're pointing a nothing it'll return nothing

you can get the end position with this formula Origin + (Direction * Distance)

okay ill see what i can do with it

and in this case, you'd need to lower your distance since you're making draggable objects

If ray doesn't hit just treat the position as being origin + whatever direction you put in as the 2nd argument
