Team and Player

• Team represents a team in glob2.
• Team is purely engine code. It does not involve interaction in anyway.
• Player is the opposite, it is purely interaction code
• Teams are static for a map and do not ever change
• Players are changeable, sometimes AI's, sometimes humans, sometimes networked players
• Networked players, by the way, will be completely hidden behind player, as opposed to our current design, where orders are pumped through the Net engine rather than being abstracted behind a Player.
• It might not be a bad idea to have different classes inherit player, each one implementing the same interface for AI,

 the local player, and networked players

• Player is no longer a placeholder.
