Make character rotate by using the mouse

[Zitoox]

Hi! I am a beginner at scripting, could someone help in this? I sincerely don’t know what to do.
I have a script that allow the player to go forward,backward,left and right. BUT i want to also be able to rotate the character by using the mouse. Not rotate it like, 90° degrees down or something. I wanted to make something that would POINT the player to the mouse’s direction.

Examples:

Here’s my script:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class CharMove : MonoBehaviour {
    public float speed = 6.0F;
    public float jumpSpeed = 8.0F;
    public float gravity = 20.0F;
    private Vector3 moveDirection = Vector3.zero;
    void Update() {
        CharacterController controller = GetComponent<CharacterController>();
        if (controller.isGrounded) {
            moveDirection = new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0, Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
            moveDirection = transform.TransformDirection(moveDirection);
            moveDirection *= speed;
            if (Input.GetButton("Jump"))
                moveDirection.y = jumpSpeed;
            
        }
        moveDirection.y -= gravity * Time.deltaTime;
        controller.Move(moveDirection * Time.deltaTime);
    }
}

Could someone help me?

You could use something like this:

transform.LookAt(Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition));

Hello!

First I would try to convert the mouse position to world position using

Vector3 mousePos = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);

This enables us to use the LookAt function to rotate our object to a specified position. So

transform.LookAt(mousePos);

So the code should look like this:

  using UnityEngine;
  using System.Collections;
  
  public class CharMovement : MonoBehaviour
  {
  
      public float speed;
  
      private Rigidbody rb;
  
      void Start()
      {
          rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
      }
  
      void FixedUpdate()
      {
          float moveHorizontal = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
          float moveVertical = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
  
          Vector3 movement = new Vector3(moveHorizontal, 0.0f, moveVertical);
  
          rb.AddForce(movement * speed);


	  //The new code:
	  Vector3 mousePos = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);
	  transform.LookAt(mousePos);
      }
  }

Hope I didn’t make a typo…
