PlayerActor Class
This class is used to create a player with a rigid physical body. It is approximated with a capsule (of a certain radius and height) and has such physical parameters as mass and friction. It also accelerate and damp its velocity over time. Unlike all other players that can move in any direction, it can only walk on the ground.
The orientation of a character in space (theta and phi angles) are illustrated here.
Each player state (walking, running, etc.) can be accompanied with one of the four helper states:
They appear in the order they are listed above. These states allow you to bind parts of animation to them.PlayerActor Class
