🧠 Progress Today

🎮 Player Movement & Controls

• Full third-person movement implemented (walk, sprint, crouch, jump).

• Sprinting drains stamina, which regenerates over time.

• Camera rotates smoothly with mouse movement (horizontal + vertical).

• Added TakeDamage() and Heal() functions for future combat and survival systems.

🤝 Survivor Interaction

• Survivor interactions now require being close and facing the survivor.

• Press E to open the interaction menu with Talk or Recruit options.

📊 Resource HUD Setup

• Framework for a resource HUD created to show key resources (wood, stone, food, water, and optional items).

• Ready to integrate with resource pickups once implemented.

🔜 Next Steps

• Add open-world resource collection (trees, rocks, lakes, animals).

• Hook resource pickups into the HUD for real-time feedback.

• Begin base-building mechanics tied to recruited survivors.

📝 Notes / Observations

• Third-person controls feel smooth and responsive.

• Survivor interaction is functional, though more testing is needed.

• Resource HUD structure is established and ready for implementation.
