Eh, you need some CFrame witchcraft. But it's fairly simple to do!
One of the constructors of a CFrame is as follows:
CFrame.new ( Vector3 Position, Vector3 LookAt )
For example:
1 | CFrame.new(Vector3.new(0, 10, 0), Vector3.new(5, 0, 0)) |
Will create a CFrame located at {0, 10, 0}, oriented towards {5, 0, 0}. And that's all! Now all that's left is to plug in what you know already:
1 | -- Local script |
2 | local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse() |
3 | local part = workspace.Part |
4 |
5 | mouse.Move:Connect(function() |
6 | part.CFrame = CFrame.new(part.Position,mouse.Hit.Position) |
7 | end) |
Hope I helped!

Would you rather make an algorithm to point a rotation vector at a position vector? I don't think so. `CFrame.new(pos, look)` is as easy as it gets. ee0w 458 — 6y
