Hello everyone! What I am trying to do is get the player face where the mouse cursor is. I am able to do this with using the players position, but of course it isn't very smooth, so i am trying to use BodyGyro. Whenever i attempt the even though the bodygyro's CFrame is changing the character doesnt move at all, and im not sure what the problem is. Here is my code:
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local Mouse = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local Root = script.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local Gyro = Instance.new("BodyGyro", Root)
local function onRenderStep()
Gyro.CFrame = CFrame.new(Root.Position, Vector3.new(Mouse.Hit.p.X, Root.Position.Y, Mouse.Hit.p.Z))
end
RunService:BindToRenderStep("Character", Enum.RenderPriority.Character.Value, onRenderStep)
Using the root part's position to turn the player works, but bodygyro doesn't. please let me know if someone knows how to fix this!

ah i see, i have jumping disabled so i didnt realize this could be an issue. I'll see if there is any way to bypass this
After turning on jumping the body did not turn even off of the ground, so this doesn't appear to be the issue.
Also, like i said, changing the root's cframe directly works perfectly on the client, but for other players and different server events it isnt smooth and causes issues, hence me looking for a smoother alternative. If you know of something other than BodyGyro and not the root's CFrame, please let me know!
