How can I cause a Part to follow the cursor?
I made an attempt to accomplish this:
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = player:GetMouse()
while true do
local bob = game.Workspace.Bob
bob.Position = Vector3.new(mouse.Hit)
end
I read that you need to use Mouse.Hit for it's position but I am probably wrong. What's the proper way to get the position of the mouse?

mouse.Hit will return the mouse's CFrame, you need to add a .p to mouse.Hit to get the position like so, mouse.Hit.p, or you could just change bob's CFrame, instead of Position.
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local m = plr:GetMouse()
game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
local bob = workspace.Bob
if bob then
bob.CFrame = m.Hit
end
end)

Thanks, and the RenderStepped is a good idea. I didn't think of that at the time. WillContinues 20 — 7y

Use GetService("Mouse").Move instead of RenderStepped. IcedVapour 153 — 7y
