### Important Notes on Animations!
- Every animation must be in place.
- You can change the animations in the animation tree if the name not matches with you chararcter model.
### Steps
1. Add your character model to the project and make it local.
2. Adjust the size and position of your model as per the default character.
3. Set the `anim_player` of the **AnimationTree** node to your model's animation player.
4. In the **Skeleton3D** node of your model, add a **BoneAttachment3D** and name it "HandPalm".
5. Set the **hand_palm** export variable to reference this "HandPalm" node which is the hand palm bone of your model.
6. Change the timers in the scene (like RollTimer, PickupTimer, etc.) to work well with the controller.
7. Test your character; it should now be fully integrated and ready for use.

- You can`t get or set player rotation directly by codes, instead you need to use set_player_rotation or get_player_rotation function to do it.
...I will try to fix it in future versions.
## Important Notes
- You can`t get or set player rotation directly by codes, instead you need to use set_player_rotation or get_player_rotation function to do it [/ul]
