For my game I want to have a 3d object replace the use of my cursor; My solution for this would be to create the object normally, and hide the cursor, and either (1) use scripting to directly change the transform to I'm not sure how these will work, however. I want the cursor to be able to bump into things and to keep a certain distance from the ground (which will change when certain actions are taken so I also need to provide for that scenario? or will I do that in the specific action script?) Thus far I've created the object, and given it a controller. I'm not sure how I'd change the input settings, or link it to the mouse yet, or even deal with the mouse yet (haven't gotten that far - I've mainly been messing with the camera). How can I use scripting to do this? Might there be a better way?

Hrm I'd like it to affect other objects with physics, but not necessarily be affected. So A character controller might just do the trick. The only issue here is how to make the force inflicted proportionate to the sped you move at, while allowing a normal mouse movement speed; I don't want to have too much force, either.
As in, you can move your mouse across the screen as normal ( though it does have a slight limit to how fast it can go, plus smoothing of the acceleration), but I don't want things to go flying if you whack them at that speed, just be bumped; in other words, the cursor has a fairly light weight, and therefore a certain limit to how much force can be applied. How can I translate this into script?
