Question by River-Ofarrows · May 08, 2016 at 06:36 AM · javascriptraycastcolliderwallstealth

raycast going through walls

a have a simple scene that has an object and a wall and a player. i am trying to have the object (a camera) see the player if they he or she is in the cameras line of sight. but the problem is that my raycast casts through a wall that the player should be able to hide behind. her is my script. (the collider of the sphere is a size 20 radius so it penetrates the wall) p.s. i am a big noob to unity

 #pragma strict
 
 var fieldOfViewAngle : float = 100.0;
 var col : SphereCollider;
 var hit : RaycastHit;
 var vectr3 : Vector3;
 
 function OnTriggerStay (other : Collider) {
     var fwd = transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward);
     var direction : Vector3 = other.transform.position - transform.position;
     if(other.CompareTag ("noticeableThing")){
         var vectorFromEnemyToPlayer : Vector3 = other.transform.position - transform.position;
         var forwardVector = transform.forward;
         var angle : float = Vector3.Angle(vectorFromEnemyToPlayer, forwardVector);
         if(angle < fieldOfViewAngle * 0.5f) {
                 if(Physics.Raycast(transform.position + transform.up, direction.normalized, hit, col.radius)){
                     if (hit.collider.tag == "noticableThing");
                     print("HA");
             }
         }
     }
 }
 
 function Awake () {
     col = GetComponent(SphereCollider);
 }
