Description
The Character Controller component is used for user movement and simulating physics, and has many settings and values that can alter the way on how a user can control either their self or another slot (For example: Vehicles). These Settings allow you to control the mass, speed, force, etc.
Keep in mind that the character controller under the user root slot is currently useless (as in, not used besides it needing to be there) at this time. And removing it just recreates it back on the user root slot.

Usage
This component is usually used internally by Resonite to simulate user movement physics like walking and climbing.
But the component can also be manipulated to create "Fake Players" commonly known by Resonite users as "NPC's". Before doing this, know that the physics simulation is always inconsistent when viewed by different players in the same session. It also causes high amounts of networking and FPS lag. Use too many and you may start rising in Queued Packets. The character controller can also be used as a ball, but for things that fly or bounce, using a Trajectory Position ProtoFlux node is vastly superior.
This component is also used in certain types of vehicles and making them controllable by the user. This is done by having a vehicle you want to make controllable, then making an anchor for the user to sit in, then setting up this component to make that user become the simulating user, thus making their controls change in such a way where they are controlling a vehicle they are sitting on.

Protoflux Notes
Using Character Controller User will give you the Simulating User of this Character Controller Component.
Using Get User From Component will give you the Owner User of this Character Controller Component.
Using Allocating User will give you the User that spawned out a slot that has this Character Controller Component.
