Fix fps_camera.gd path for export — move out of ignored client/ dir

- Copied fps_camera.gd from client/characters/character/ to scripts/characters/
- Updated player.tscn to reference new path
- The client/ directory has its own project.godot so Godot ignores it during export
- Zero export errors now

 ## FPSCharacterController — first-person character for a networked tactical shooter.
 ##
-## Bridges Godot Input → SimulationServer (GDExtension C++ core).
 ## Handles mouse look, WASD movement, sprint toggle, hold-to-crouch, jump.
+## The rollback-aware movement runs inside _rollback_tick() when netfox is active.
+## Falls back to _move_local() for standalone / non-networked mode.

-## Connects to SimulationServer via `apply_input()` each frame.
-## Reads server snapshot data and updates the node transform.
-##
+## Mouse Look:      Capture mouse on click, yaw rotates body, pitch rotates camera.
 ## Walk Toggle:     Tap Shift to toggle sprint on/off.
 ## Crouch:          Hold Ctrl to crouch. Smooth lerp transition.
 ## Jump:            Press Space.
