Resolved How to set LayerMask for CollisionWorld.CastRay?

I just want to use it like how you pass LayerMask to Physics.Raycast, but I can't seem to get it working.
Here is my ray code:

Code (CSharp):

1.         public static RaycastInput GetRayInput(float3 start, float3 end, LayerMask collisionMask)
2.         {
3.             return new RaycastInput
4.             {
5.                 Start = start,
6.                 End = end,
7.                 Filter = new CollisionFilter
8.                 {
9.                     BelongsTo = ~0u,
10.                     CollidesWith = (uint)collisionMask.value,
11.                     GroupIndex = 0
12.                 }
13.             };
14.         }
15.  
16.         public static bool IsVisibleThroughGeometry(CollisionWorld collisionWorld, float3 pointA, float3 pointB, LayerMask obstacleMask)
17.         {
18.             var input = GetRayInput(pointA, pointB, obstacleMask);
19.             collisionWorld.CastRay(input, out var closestHit);
20.  
21.             LogEntityName(closestHit.Entity);
22.             // If does not hit an obstacle, then it is visible
23.             return closestHit.Entity == Entity.Null;
24.         }
25.  
26.         [BurstDiscard]
27.         static void LogEntityName(Entity entity)
28.         {
29.             Debug.Log(World.DefaultGameObjectInjectionWorld.EntityManager.GetName(entity));
30.         }

Logging the Entity name shows that hit entity does not belong to the layer I have provided as LayerMask. What am I missing here?

 

LayerMask shouldn't be a problem here. There seems to be another problem, are your physicsCategoryNames and layermask identical? and is your obstacle's belongsTo correctly assigned?

 

Oh wow. I didn't realize I needed to define physicsCategoryNames, for some reason I thought setting the gameobject layer would automatically update physics body after conversion. So using LayerMask doesn't make sense then.
