About the parameters “halfextents” and “maxdistance”.
If i boxcast on the z axis with center being 0,0,0, and the z axis of half extents is 5, and max distance is 1, where would the edge of the boxcast be?
would it be at 1 z? or 6 z?
- Answer: The Distance that will be checked will be 5+1=6

Explanation:
if ( Physics.BoxCastNonAlloc(
center: Vector3.zero ,
halfExtents: new Vector3( 1 , 1 , 6 ) * 0.5f ,
direction: Vector3.forward ,
results: hit ,
orientation: transform.rotation ,
maxDistance: 1 ) > 0 )
Debug_float = 1;
else
Debug_float = 0;
the code will check halfExtents + maxDistance
in the image Below:
- white box = halfExtents
- Red Box = maxDistance
- the Sphere is the cast results
- The output: Debug_float = 1
