Aiming a FE projectile?

I am trying to make the characters torso point towards the mouse for a few moments then fire a projectile. The projectile is in a tool format and I have tried using TargetPoint, but that does not seem to be working. Any suggestions are helpful.

First off, you would need to get the Player's Mouse. You can call the Player's Mouse from a local script using

local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
torso = workspace:FindFirstChild(game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name):FindFirstChild("Torso") --you need the torso too

Next you would need a function that makes the torso face towards where the bullet is aimed. I would suggest using BodyGyro. BodyGyro is an Instance that takes a CFrame value and points it's parent towards that CFrame value. (Only applies for parts)

function launch(pos) --pos is for later use
	local gyro = Instance.new("BodyGyro", torso) --the second parameter is the parent
	gyro.cframe = CFrame.new(torso.Position, pos.p)	
end

Next you will need to fire a projectile, which can be done using BodyVelocity. Body Velocity is an Instance that takes a Vector3 value and sets that Vector3 value as its target velocity. So we would just need to feed it the mouse's Position, which will later be defined as pos.

	local bullet = Instance.new("Part", workspace)
	bullet.CanCollide = false
	bullet.CFrame = torso.CFrame
	local velocity = Instance.new("BodyVelocity", bullet)
	velocity.Velocity = pos.p -- .p converts the CFrame to a Vector3 value
	velocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge,math.huge,math.huge) --this keeps the bullet going at a constant rate
	game:GetService("Debris"):AddItem(bullet, 3) --removes bullet after 3 seconds
	gyro:Destroy()

Finally, you need to call your function. You need to call it every time you click, so you would use the event Button1Down.

mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()
	launch(mouse.Hit)
end)

Put all of this together and you get

local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
torso = workspace:FindFirstChild(game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name):FindFirstChild("Torso")

function launch(pos) --pos is for later use
	local gyro = Instance.new("BodyGyro", torso) --the second parameter is the parent
	torso.BodyGyro.CFrame = CFrame.new(torso.Position, pos.p)
	local bullet = Instance.new("Part", workspace)
	bullet.CanCollide = false
	bullet.CFrame = torso.CFrame
	local velocity = Instance.new("BodyVelocity", bullet)
	velocity.Velocity = pos.p -- .p converts the CFrame to a Vector3 value
	velocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge,math.huge,math.huge) --this keeps the bullet going at a constant rate
	game:GetService("Debris"):AddItem(bullet, 3) --removes bullet after 3 seconds
	gyro:Destroy()
end

mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()
	launch(mouse.Hit)
end)

Hope this helped! --connor12260311
