Issue with Hotspot raycasting in First Person mode.
Hi.
I am having an issue with the Hotspots in First Person mode where, if I cross a specific threshold vertically, I cannot seem to interact with the hotspots anymore. I have tried several settings, but nothing seems to work. I am sure it is some option I am missing, or perhaps there is an issue with how my character is set up. I have added a video showcasing the issue, as well as an image of my settings. I am hoping there is a way to fix this issue that would allow me to place hotspots on the ground as well. Otherwise, it would severely limit item placement.
Using the last version of AC and Unity.
As always, thank you in advance for any and all help.

Is the angle threshold independent of the Hotspot and distance from it?
As the Hotspot ray length is so large, it's not going to be a case of the Hotspot being too far away. The other main cause of this is that there's another collider of some kind getting in the way.
Is there any collider, either attached to your player, or surrounding the Hotspot, on the Default layer? Try enabling Gizmos in the Game window to see if that displays any collider boundaries.
Hi Chris, thanks for replying so quickly. I have triggers in the room that control footsteps sounds and other events. Could those be the issue? Would setting their Layer to "Ignore Raycast" fix it? <- That fixed it. I'm so stupid. It was so obvious and somehow I missed it. The triggers had "default" instead of "Ignore Raycast". Thank you again, Chris.
