Description
The CharacterController class is an extension of the RigidBodyController class, and it implements a small amount of functionality that is commonly needed for basic characters.

The CharacterController class expects its target node to have exact one Shape subnode. To faciliate robust and fast character physics, the character controller always keeps this shape in a fixed orientation. The CharacterController::SetCharacterOrientation function should always be used to change the direction in which the character faces.
