Physics2D.BoxCastAll() doesn't work with direction = Vector2.zero

Hi, friends.

Is this intended or bug?

If it's intended, how can I check if BoxCollider2D intersecting something in the scene? (Without using "event" functions like OnTriggerEnter2D etc.)

 

Hi! Thanks for you response.

Unfortunately, box is rotated and I need to know collision point.

I created a little test:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. Vector2 size = //calculate total size
3. Vector3 pos = //calculate total position
4. float angle = //get current angle
5.  
6. RaycastHit2D[] hits =  Physics2D.BoxCastAll(pos, size, angle, Vector2.zero);
7.  
8. GameObject test = new GameObject("test");
9. test.transform.position = pos;
10. test.AddComponent<BoxCollider2D>().size = size;
11. test.transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0,0, angle);
12.  

So basically I'm trying to debug BoxCastAll by creating new object and passing function arguments to the new BoxCollider2D. Test object generates new collider that exactly matches my expecatitions, but BoxCastAll still returns no results (or weird results).

 

I've submitted bug report, case number is 692409.
Please, take a look.
I'm pretty sure I using something wrong, but who knows.

 

Nice!
Glad I could help
