You could get the Vector2 of the difference between the mouse x/y position and the player position. Then this vector would point toward the mouse. From there you would need to scale it (multiply by some float number) and then use that as the velocity for move_and_slide.

It would look something like this:

# assuming this script is on the player
var direction_to_mouse = global_position.direction_to(get_global_mouse_position())
velocity += direction_to_mouse * BOOST_SPEED

Depending on whether the boost is a one-time thing or sustained, you may need to slightly modify the code :smile:
