Hello,
I have implemented a vfx graph in my project. The vfx works with a raycast property. Unfortunately this raycast doesn't recognize physics colliders, only colliders on gameobjects. Do I need to set the target position of the raycast in a system manually and how do I do that?
Thanks for your help!

Has anyone ever worked with vfx in ecs?

Sure, but that's a whole different question then how the VFX graph raycast works in tandem with DOTS.

I see. I think I try to set the target position of the raycast manually and do the raycast with the physics system

Hello. I am now setting the vfx properties via a system and its working fine. The problem now is that I don't see my visual effect in scene or game view. Does anybody know why this could happen`?

did you put your vfxgraph in a subscene?
viral nimbus
Yes with an authoring to get the visual effect later in the system. The exact same graph works fine with a monobehaviour in the "normal scene"
dusky escarp
only entities can exist in subscenes
with only a few whitelisted exceptions
vfx graph is not one of them
anything that isn't an entity in a subscene does not exist at runtime

ah okay thats good to know. So I take the vfx outside and set it to the component through a mono?
