Unity2D Raycast not working

Questions & Answers
1

I tried many times, searched on different sites … Nothing works. The problem is in the operator if(hit.collider.gameObject == target).
I want to make the turret shoot only when the enemy is in front of it.
i changed configurations method Raycast()

Code:

 Vector2 up = transform.TransformDirection(Vector2.right) * 5;           
            Debug.DrawRay(transform.position, up, Color.green, 1);
            if (!shoot)
            {
                RaycastHit2D hit = Physics2D.Raycast(transform.position, up, 0.1F);
                if (hit != null)
                    if (hit.collider.gameObject == target)
                    {
                        Instantiate(Bullet, shootElem.position, transform.rotation);
                        shoot = true;
                        Invoke("reload", shootSpeed);
                    }
            }
        }
    }
   
    void reload()
    { shoot = false; }

why are you using different vectors in the drawray and raycast? shouldnt be the same?

RaycastHit2D hit = Physics2D.Raycast(transform.position, up, 0.1F);
