Hey there! This has to do with Mouse.TargetFilter. Essentially, your mouse is hitting the coordinate point on top of the brick over and over again, which is what causes this effect.

To make this have the behavior you want, you need to ignore the part in question when deciding what coordinate point the mouse is hitting.

You can do this by simply modifying the mouse's TargetFilter.

01wait(2)
02local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
03local Part = game.ReplicatedStorage.Part
04local mouse = Player:GetMouse()
05mouse.TargetFilter = Part
06while wait() do
07    local Loc = mouse.Hit
08    print(Loc)
09    Part.Parent = workspace
10    Part.CFrame = Loc+Vector3.new(0,.5,0)
11    Part.Orientation = Vector3.new(0,0,0)
12end

In this revised code we tell the hit detection to completely ignore this part.

TargetFilter can be a BasePart, Model, or anything of the sort. All descendants of TargetFilter will also be ignored.

In the case that you want multiple things ignored, TargetFilted isn't going to do it for ya, if you need this, use a raycast from the camera position, use the Unit from the Mouse.UnitRay, and FindPartsOnRayWithIgnoreList RubenKan 3615 — 6y
