How do I move only one selected object which uses rigidbody instead of all objects at the same time?

Hi, I am currently trying to write a script for unity. I have a puzzle game with blocks that need to be selected & moved one at a time. Currently I have the script almost working fine except when a block is selected, all the blocks move together instead of just the selected block. I am using the wasd keys to control the direction of the blocks. The script i’m using for movement is this…

public float speed;
private Rigidbody rb;

public void Start()
{
    rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
}

public void Update()
{
    float h = Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal");
    float v = Input.GetAxisRaw("Vertical");

    Vector3 tempVect = new Vector3(h, 0, v);
    tempVect = tempVect.normalized * speed * Time.deltaTime;
    rb.MovePosition(transform.position + tempVect);

}

The script i’m using to select a block is this…

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class MouseHoverColorChange : MonoBehaviour
{
//The object that this script is attached to.
private GameObject m_Object;

// The original color of the object.
private Color m_OriginalColor;

// The color that the object will change to when the mouse hovers over it.
public Color hoverColor = Color.red;

// The color of the object will change to red once selected.
public Color clickColor = Color.red;

private MoveObject moveObject;

// Start is called before the first frame update
void Start()
{
    // Get the object that this script is attached to.
    m_Object = gameObject;

    // Get the original color of the object.
    m_OriginalColor = m_Object.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.color;

    // Get the block controller script from the object
    moveObject = m_Object.GetComponent<MoveObject>();
}

private void OnMouseEnter()
{
    // Change the color of the object to the hover color.
    m_Object.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.color = hoverColor;
}

private void OnMouseExit()
{
    // Change the color of the object back to it's original color.
    m_Object.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.color = m_OriginalColor;
}

private void OnMouseDown()
{
    m_Object.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.color = clickColor;
    // toggle the block controller script
    moveObject.enabled = !moveObject.enabled;
}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
    
}

}

Does anyone know how I can select just one block & move that instead of it moving all the blocks at the same time?

Looks like you have the same script attached to all the blocks and only turn on the movement for the selected block.

Are you certain that moveObject.enabled = false is actually turning off those MoveObject scripts on the object?
