Moving a 3d object in unity on mouse click with click to move controller

Question

Hi,

I am using a custom character controller that moves my character around a scene through mouse clicks, similar to diablo. I would like to be able to click on an object in the scene that would then disable the controller and move the object with the mouse until clicked again, at which point the object would detach from the mouse at that position and the click to move controller would be re-enabled.

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :)

sorry for how long this is, i don't really know where I would alter this for the desired effect. the code was provided by some programming students in a concurrent program with mine. we are getting minimal code support for it

private var yourCharacterController : CharacterController; private var dir : Vector3;

private var hit : RaycastHit ;

private var rot = 0;

private var k : Vector3;

var gravity = 1.0;

static var grounded : boolean = false;

//Public Variables: Adjust in front end var RunSpeed = 10; //Character's running speed var WalkSpeed = 5; //Character's walking speed var jumpSpeed = 2; //speed of jump var characterDefense: float = 0; //character's defense stat var marker : GameObject; //what is used to show walk destination var targetDist: int = 1; //how close to target character needs to be to stop walking

//For multiple Idle States public var bonusIdles : int = 0; //the number of additional idle animations / sounds set in front end. static var idleArray = new Array(); //will hold additional idle animations static var idleSounds = new Array(); //will hold additional idle sounds private var idlePlay:String = "idle"; private var idleTime : int = 0; //amount of time we have been stopped //

//Private Variables private var going : boolean = false; //whether the player is moving or not private var running: boolean = false; //if running is false, they player will be walking private var speed: int; //actual speed player will move private var moveAni : String = "walk"; //the move animation to be used (walk or run) private var xDist: float; //distance from target destination private var zDist: float; //distance from target destination static var goTo : Vector3; //current target destination

//Static Variables static var interacting: boolean = false; //if character is interacting with object/enemy or free to move static var mouseOverGUI: boolean = false; //if mouse is over a GUI button

static var clickTimer: int = 0; static var spaceTimer : int = 0; static var jumping : boolean = false;
