How can i move game object to mouse position while in players range-CodePudding

I am trying to make weapon which is an orb. I tried almost everything but couldn't make weapon following mouse while in range of player. Can anyone help me?

Here is player hierarchy: Player Prefab

Here is my code. The problem in this code is maxDistance is always between 0-6. Max distance doesn't fit with player movement. If you have better solution to this it would be awesome to hear.

    public Transform weaponParent;
    public float maxMoveSpeed = 10;
    public float smoothTime = 0.3f;
    Vector2 currentVelocity;
    [SerializeField] private float maxDistance = 6f;

    void FixedUpdate()
    {
        Vector2 mousePosition = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);

        var target = Vector2.ClampMagnitude(mousePosition, maxDistance);

        weaponParent.position = Vector2.SmoothDamp(weaponParent.position, target, ref currentVelocity, smoothTime, maxMoveSpeed);

    }

I think I get your issue now

you are clamping a position (which is a vector starting at world (0,0,0), you rather want to clamp the vector between them like e.g.

var target = transform.position    Vector2.ClampMagnitude(mousePosition - transform.position, maxDistance);
