    Code (csharp):
    1. Collider2D lineOfSightEnemy = Physics2D.Raycast(transform.position, currentSelectedEnemy.gameObject.transform.position, Mathf.Infinity, enemyLayer.value).collider;
    I have the above piece of code in my project. I have noticed that it returns a collider only if gameobjects have BoxCollider2D. It returns null when it has any other type of collider (polygon2d, circle2d etc).

    I have never seen that happen, not even sure how it could because behind the scenes, a BoxCollider2D and a PolygonCollider2D is the same thing i.e. a Box2D polygon.
