Struct Ray

This struct captures the information needed for ray casting. It is technically not a Ray as it includes a length. This is to avoid performance issues with infinite length Rays.

Syntax

public struct Ray

Fields

Origin

The Origin point of the Ray in query space.

Declaration

public float3 Origin

Field Value

Type	Description
float3	Point vector coordinate.

Remarks

If the origin of the ray is an entity in a transform hierarchy, the entity's LocalTransform component only stores its position relative to its parent entity. In this case, to compute the entity's world-space transform for ray-casting purposes, use the Unity.Transforms.Helpers.ComputeWorldTransformMatrix method.

Properties

Displacement

This represents the line from the Ray's Origin to a second point on the Ray. The second point will be the Ray End if nothing is hit.

Declaration

public float3 Displacement { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
float3	Line vector.
