/*
 Some interesting special rules:
    You can only transition from one animation to another at certain points.

    The climb, mount, and dismount animations must be at their beginning or end
    to transition.

    If a climb or mount animation finishes and the key is not being held down, the idle
    animation starts automatically.

    If a climb or mount finishes and the key is being held down, the brain will *try*
    to transition to the same stage, effectively looping it.

    The idle can transition at any point.

    The Release and FallOff aniamtions can forcibly transition *any* animation.
