Projectile always firing above player, not directly at.

Hi guys, so a projectile instantiating from an enemy is always firing above my player, and not directly at.

I've checked that all my transform positions are centred (especially for the gameobject that is being referenced)

The relevant code is below

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2.  
3. private GameObject _player;
4. public float projSpeed;
5. private Vector3 direction;
6.  
7. void Start ()
8.     {
9.         projSpeed *= Time.deltaTime;
10.         _player = GameObject.Find("_PlayerMove");
11.         StartCoroutine(FirePlayer());
12.     }
13.    
14.     // Update is called once per frame
15.     void Update ()
16.     {
17.  
18.         direction = (_player.transform.position - transform.position).normalized;
19.  
20.     }
21.  
22. private IEnumerator FirePlayer()
23.     {
24.  
25.         while (true)
26.         {
27.             yield return new WaitForSeconds(1);
28.            
29.             GameObject shot1 = Instantiate(_projectile, _shootOrigin.transform.position, Quaternion.LookRotation(direction));
30.             shot1.GetComponent<Rigidbody>().velocity = direction * projSpeed;
31.         }
32.     }

Any ideas what the problem might be?

 

Can you share any video or gif ?
