# MOVE THAT CHARACTER — push the player's body around from Verse.
#
# Once you hold a player's fort_character you can move it two clean ways:
#   * SetLinearVelocity — DIRECT. Set how fast and which way they're moving
#                   right now (meters/second). The launch-pad punch.
#   * ApplyLinearImpulse — PHYSICS. A one-off shove in Newton-seconds, blended
#                   with whatever they were already doing — a softer nudge.
# (A third, TeleportTo, blinks them instantly to a spot — we use it in the
# capstone, where it pairs with the kill-floor catcher.)
#
# This device wires a Button to a "launch" that flings every player straight
# up — a crowd-pleaser bounce pad you can drop into any island.
#
# AXIS NAMING: a /Verse.org/SpatialMath vector3 uses Forward / Left / Up
# (the same Scene Graph convention you met in the Animation series) — NOT
# X / Y / Z. Up is the vertical axis, so an upward pop sets only `Up`.
