You obtain the mouse using Player:GetMouse(). Then there is a property within the mouse called Hit that will get the 3D position the mouse is pointing at in CFrame form. With that information you can reset the position of the brick to the Player's mouse when the player clicks using the Button1Down() event.

--In a local script
player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
mouse = player:GetMouse() --Get the mouse from the player
local part = PathToPartHere --part you want to move with the mouse
mouse.Button1Down:connect(function() --Mouse button is clicked
part.CFrame = mouse.Hit --Set the new brick position to the mouse hit property
end)
--This should work. Use Remote Functions/Events if FE is enabled to change the position of the brick

i trey that and the game is telling me that there is a error that i am attempting to call mouse a nil value on line 5
I believe GetMouse can only be called from localscripts. Put this code into a LocalScript and leave it in the player. Get rid of the event at the start and just do: local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
Yea sorry, I'll fix it rn
lol now it is saying this i feel like you guys have the right code but i am doing something wrong? 13:08:06.886 - Players.Player1.PlayerScripts.LocalScript:5: attempt to index upvalue 'part' (a nil value)
replace PathToPartHere, with the correct path to the part in your workspace, this script will NOT work if you have FE enabled under game.Workspace properties. If you wish to use this with FE, lookup remote functions on the wiki
