Ray Not Registering HIt

Unity Engine
1

Hi there,
Can some one tell me if I am doing something incorrectly?

I have using this code, to tap the screen. It sends a ray from this point thru the camera. Viewing the drawn ray, it is colliding or travelling thru the intended targets. However, it never registers as the ray actually hitting. I have the correct layer of the layer mask set.

	void testForDummyTarget(){
		print("test for dummy target ");//THIS PRINTS
        Ray ray = cam.ScreenPointToRay(inputPos);
        Debug.DrawRay(ray.origin, ray.direction * 100, Color.red);
		if(Physics.Raycast(dummyRay, out dummyHit, Mathf.Infinity, dummyLayerMask)){
			//We have hit a dummy.
			print("we have locked on a target mmmm");///THIS NEVER PRINTS
		}
	}

Do ray and dummyRay have the same value?

OMG.
This is the second stupid post today.

I swear, my life that, this is what happens when your neighbour decides to have a rager on on a Wednesday.
Thanks.

It is generally a productive use of time to actually debug your code before posting in the forum
