Box not going where the mouse is pointing

#1

so i have a throwing system, and the box is going slightly to the sides, i think it is because the mouse hit position is on the box
(mouse is mouse.Hit.Position)

	local box = target
	local speed = -100
	box.CFrame = CFrame.new(box.Position, mouse)
	box.Velocity = box.CFrame.LookVector * speed

I don’t know the context for your throwing system but I would try Mouse.UnitRay

#3

is there a way to just get the direction of the mouse?
(also what context do you need?)

#4

u should be looping it the cframe and velocity. as well you should do this instead.

box.CFrame = CFrame.new(box.Position, mouse.Position)
#5

the mouse is already mouse.Hit.Position

#6

If you save these properties as variables, they will not change as it will only hold the first value assigned to it unless changed. I also recommend using user input service for things that have to do with mouse, as the player get mouse method is deprecated.

(E to pick it up and click to throw it)
