Character and the Camera Smoothly Rotating Towards The Part

[dropzse (Drops67)]

Hi so I was really curious how would I go about making something like this so the character and the camera are smoothly rotating towards the part, example in what I want to achieve is in the video

Hey there! This is actually a quite simple task to achieve. You can use a combination of
CFrame.lookAt(), something called “Tweening”, and something called a “BodyGyro”. To do this, you can insert a LocalScript into StarterPlayerScripts, or wherever you usually put client scripts. Then just follow what I have below:

--[[VARIABLES]]--
local PLRS = game:GetService("Players") -- the players service
local TS = game:GetService("TweenService") -- tween service (used for smoothly 'Tweening' pretty much anything)
local runService = game:GetService("RunService") -- run service

--player assets--
local player = PLRS.LocalPlayer -- the player
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local mouse = player:GetMouse() -- getting the mouse of the player

--filtering--
local mouseTargetFiltering = {
	"LookAtPart"
}

--values--
local isLookingAtPart = false

--[[FUNCTIONS]]--
local function addGyro()
	local newGryo = Instance.new("BodyGyro")
	newGryo.Name = "LookAtGyro"
	newGryo.MaxTorque = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)
	newGryo.P = 4000
	newGryo.D = 100
	newGryo.Parent = character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
end

local function tweenToPart(part)
	character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChild("LookAtGyro").MaxTorque = Vector3.new(math.huge, math.huge, math.huge)
	coroutine.wrap(function()
		part.Color = Color3.fromRGB(53, 255, 30)
		while part and isLookingAtPart == true do
			TS:Create(character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChild("LookAtGyro"), TweenInfo.new(.25, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.Out, 0, false, 0), {CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position, part.Position * Vector3.new(1, 0, 1) + player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position * Vector3.new(0, 1, 0))}):Play()
			task.wait()
		end
		part.Color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0)
		character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChild("LookAtGyro").MaxTorque = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)
	end)()
end

addGyro()

runService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	if mouse.Target then
		for i, filter in pairs(mouseTargetFiltering) do
			if mouse.Target.Name == filter and not isLookingAtPart then
				isLookingAtPart = true
				tweenToPart(mouse.Target)
				break
			else
				isLookingAtPart = false
				break
			end
		end
	end
end)

Of course you can always tweak and perfect this to your liking. This is a pretty bare-bones concept of what it would look like.

If you need further help, please don’t hesitate to respond!

I hope this does help.
