Rotate a part, based on anothers parts Position

Hello Developers;

I am currently working on a tower defense game. I need to make a system where when a part moves, another part will rotate based on it. (May sound confusing, so here is a video on what I am talking about). What I am trying to accomplish is an automatic version of what is shown in the video, shown above.

I know it would involve CFrame and Velocity, but my current system just does this

So you want it to aim at the other Part?
Try CFrame.lookAt here: CFrame | Roblox Creator Documentation

This is my system, and it is already using CFrame, except the part is orbiting around the other part instead of aiming

   wait(5)
   while true do
wait(0.1)
local Part1 = game.Workspace.GoodGuy
local Part2 = game.Workspace.BadGuy

local rotation = Part1.CFrame:Inverse() * Part2.CFrame

Part1.CFrame = Part1.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(1), 0)
Part2.CFrame = Part1.CFrame * rotation

end

Try reading the section about CFrame.lookAt.
