A player is a Node that inherits from characters. It is characterized by its possession of the UI, its use of the UserControl AI package, and exclusive abilities. It rests at res://character/Player/Player.gd.

flow

At ready, it gives itself to the UI singleton, so UI.get_player() is available to every node. Maybe dumb, but it works for now. It also sets up all AI packages and the UI, then has the UI display the correct stats.
