Hi guys.
Im programming a Platformer and want to allign the Player to the ground while on slopes. I read about there is a way by getting the angle between the ground and the normal via Raycasting. Now i tried to get a Raycast going but i failed.

I wrote this and checked on a lot of helpsites wich all told me the same.

public float distance = 100f;
Vector3 targetLocation;
void Update()
{
 
    RaycastHit hit;
    if (Physics.Raycast(transform.position, Vector3.down, out hit, distance))
    {
        Vector3 targetLocation = hit.point;
        Debug.DrawLine(transform.position, hit.point, Color.red);        
    }
}

Now i should see a Raycast in the Editor but i dont am i doing anything wrong pls help. Thanks in advance.

Distance should be 100 and debugging target location do not give anything out and also no message that anything is wrong. i dont really get it.
