unexpected hit on raycaster

[Utopiah]

Description: copy/pasting the example from the documentation https://aframe.io/docs/1.4.0/components/raycaster.html#example the console does display a hit.

The event is :

raycaster-intersection { target: a-entity#player, isTrusted: false, detail: {…}, srcElement: a-entity#player, eventPhase: 0, bubbles: true, cancelable: false, returnValue: true, defaultPrevented: false, composed: false, … }
bubbles: true
cancelBubble: false
cancelable: false
composed: false
currentTarget: null
defaultPrevented: false
detail: Object { els: (4) […], intersections: (4) […] }
eventPhase: 0
explicitOriginalTarget: <a-entity id="player" collider-check="" raycaster="">
isTrusted: false
originalTarget: <a-entity id="player" collider-check="" raycaster="">
returnValue: true
srcElement: <a-entity id="player" collider-check="" raycaster="">
target: <a-entity id="player" collider-check="" raycaster="">
timeStamp: 698
type: "raycaster-intersection"
<get isTrusted()>: function isTrusted()
<prototype>: CustomEventPrototype { initCustomEvent: initCustomEvent(), detail: Getter, … }

Which seems to return itself as a target.

Changing objects to a non present selector e.g .abcdef gives the same result.

The inspector shows that the line and the cube do not intersect.

Example was wrong / outdated. collider-check has to be on the entity with the raycaster or otherwise the component dependency will add another raycaster to the player entity that it's the one that produces the undesired hits (has no objects filter selector)

Just updated the docs. A glitch with the corrected code:

Super, thanks a lot for the clarification and this super fast fix of the doc!
