How to set BodyForce.Force to mouse's position?
I want to set a BodyForce.Force Vector3 to my mouse's position.
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer local mouse = player:GetMouse() local part = workspace.Part
part.BodyForce.Force = -- this is were I need to adjust the Vector3 so the part can move to my --mouse's position using mouse.Hit.p
Any suggestions?

Bad question but will answer. It's not quite as easy as "set to mouse position", but more like giving it a direction that could reach the mouse position.
To get a direction vector you do ( targetVector - originVector ).Unit
Multiply this direction for magnitude. For forces you'd use F=MA.
so:
local acc = 10 --desired acceleration part.BodyForce.Force = (mouse.Hit.p - part.Position).Unit * part:GetMass() * acc
However the extra stuff like gravity or friction will make you consider other BodyMovers lol.
