Linecast acting weird, buggy??

Hi,

I have an enemy LOS script where it detects when the player is collided with it.
At the very beginning stages I used Box collider with that LOS script and then decided to switch to linecast for the sake of decreasing amount of colliders and visually having a better scene.

BUT,

when I was working with collider type of thing, it was quite precise.
As I swtiched to linecast, I see that I can abuse the enemy LOS. I mean, when I just stand at the very edge of enemy LOS, the enemy acts like he sees me but the projectiles are got reset when he fires as if he is undecided rather he sees me or not and I don'T get any hit despite his linecast collides with my collider.

But when I just move forward a little bit, he fires the projectiles properly and I get hits.

What is it causing this strange behavior with linecast??

Here is my code...

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2.  
3. private void Update()
4.     {
5.         Seeking();
6.     }
7.  
8.     void Seeking()
9.     {
10.  
11.         Debug.DrawLine(losStart.position, losEnd.position, Color.red);
12.         playerLocated = Physics2D.Linecast(losStart.position, losEnd.position, 1 << LayerMask.NameToLayer("Player"));
13.         if (playerLocated && !player.Instance.IsDead)
14.         {
15.             enemy.Target = player.Instance.gameObject;
16.  
17.         }
18.         else
19.         {
20.             enemy.Target = null;
21.         }
22.  
23.     }
24.  

Thank you all!

 

I'd like to see the script for what happens after the player is made the enemy's target.

 

I found the problem, though I haven't yet inspected it to the full depth.
I have written a projectile range for my enemy. If the range of the projectile is less than the enemy LOS, this weird behavior starts. But if the range of the projectile is equal or greater than the LOS, everything seems to work normal.

I'll dig it further to see what causes this strange behavior. =)
Sometimes I get lost in my own code...

 

Did you actually found out what is the issue ?
