using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerController : MonoBehaviour {
public float speed = 0f;

private Vector3 mousePosition;
private bool moving = false;


void Update () {
		Plane plane = new Plane (Vector3.up, transform.position);
		Ray ray = UnityEngine.Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition);
		float hitPoint = 0.0f;

	if (plane.Raycast (ray, out hitPoint)) {
		 mousePosition = ray.GetPoint(hitPoint);

		if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)) {
		moving = true;
		}
	}
	Move ();
}

void Move ()  {
           if (moving)  {
	          	transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, mousePosition, speed * Time.deltaTime);
		transform.LookAt(mousePosition);
	}
}

What you have is very close to what you need. Just a slight little change

  • You only want to set a new position when you click

  • You want to move towards it every frame

  • Your moving bool was

     [SerializeField] float speed = 1;

 Vector3 lastClickedMousePosition;

 void Start ()
 {
 	lastClickedMousePosition = transform.position;
 }

 void Update ()
 {
 	ProcessMouseClick();
 	Move ();
 }

 // if the mouse is clicked, it sets where you clicked to the lastMousePosition
 void ProcessMouseClick ()
 {
 	if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
 	{
 		Plane plane = new Plane (Vector3.up, transform.position);
 		Ray ray = UnityEngine.Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition);
 		float hitPoint = 0.0f;

 		if (plane.Raycast (ray, out hitPoint)) {
 			lastClickedMousePosition = ray.GetPoint(hitPoint);
 		}
 	}
 }

 //moves towards last clicked mouse position
 void Move ()
 {
 	transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, lastClickedMousePosition, speed * Time.deltaTime);
 	transform.LookAt(lastClickedMousePosition);
 }
