I’ve done this already using an IKControl. It’s really simple. You just create the IKControl, set its EndEffector to the head and the ChainRoot to UpperTorso, set the type to LookAt, and then you can simply use a small part that you position in front of the camera and the character will automatically look at it.

Ye obviously you’ll have to disable the old script. Keep it commented and see if you can make it work through a IKControl

No it doesn’t have to face the camera, as IKControl doesn’t use the CFrame but only the position. I’ve done it this way:

-- In your client script
local lookPart = Instance.new("Part");
lookPart.Size = Vector3.new(.1, .1, .1);
lookPart.Transparency = 1;
lookPart.CanCollide = false;
lookPart.Anchored = true;
lookPart.Parent = workspace;

-- create the ikcontrol and set every property, I won't write all of them
IKControl.Type = Enum.IKControlType.LookAt;
IKControl.Target = lookPart;
IKControl.EndEffector = character.Head;
IKControl.ChainRoot = character.UpperTorso;

RunService.PreRender:Connect(function()
   -- so the part is constantly in front of the camera
   lookPart.Position = (camera.CFrame * CFrame.new(0, 0, -75)).Position;
end);

No worries, IKControls are really useful and simplify something that would take a long time to code. Glad I could help
