Question Why my RayCast doesn't work as expected

My RayCast practicce scripts will be below

RaycastHit hitinfo;
transform.Translate(transform.TransformDirection(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"),0,Input.GetAxis("Vertical")));
Debug.DrawRay(shoot.transform.position,shoot.transform.TransformDirection(-Vector3.right)*10,Color.red);
bool collide = Physics.Raycast(shoot.transform.position,shoot.transform.TransformDirection(-Vector3.right)*10,out hitinfo,20f);
if(collide)
{
Debug.Log("hit something");
}

else
{
Debug.Log("hit nothing");

}
}

In play mode, as first beginning, the ray coming from the shoot hit a Cube, and console Debug.Log-->Hit Something

But when I move the shooter the place, and move back , targeting the Cube, console no longer Debug.Log
-->Hit Something. It always say "Hit Nothing"
That's very weird, at first it does work, but when move back it doesn't work anymore

 

What's "shoot" in your script?

You've moving the transform of the object the component is added to using the input axis, but then you're raycasting from "shoot" which seems to be a different object.

As a side note, shoot.transform.TransformDirection(-Vector3.right) is the same as -shoot.transform.right

 

Yes, the shoot means the rectangle attached to the capsule
I want to draw ray from shoot position; therefore I use shoot.transform.position.

That's very weird, at first it works, and returns gameobject such as cube1, cube2,..
but when moving back, then it doesn't work as it did before.

 

Raycast asks for a direction (normalized), there is no need for that "*10".
