Typical usage

Basic FPS controller

[On Update] → [FPS Tools:
                   Camera=fps_camera
                   Perspective=First Person
                   Walk Speed=5.0
                   Sprint Speed=10.0
                   Jump Force=7.0
                   Health=True, Max HP=100
                   Ammo=True, Max Ammo=30]

BGE properties created on init

self.own['health']      = 100.0  # if Health=True
self.own['ammo']        = 30     # if Ammo=True
self.own['ammo_reserve']= 90     # if Reserve=True
self.own['is_crouching']= False
self.own['is_sprinting']= False
self.own['is_grounded'] = False

Notes

Connect to On Update — manages mouselook and movement every frame.
The mouse is hidden and centered automatically on the first frame.
For additional mechanics (shooting, interaction), use FPS Raycast after this node.
For fine-grained control, use Mouse Look with custom movement logic instead of this node.
