In this tutorial we build a simple but powerful character controller architecture in Godot using the Driver / Intent / Motor pattern. Instead of mixing input, movement, and logic in one script, we separate responsibilities so player input and AI can control the same character using the exact same movement and state machine code. We’ll create one character scene that can switch between player control and behavior-tree AI, while sharing movement, physics, and animation logic. Project files are available on GitHub so you can follow along.
