+``_init()`` triggers before ``_enter_tree()`` or ``_ready()``, but after a script
+creates and initializes its properties. When instantiating a scene, property
+values will set up according to the following sequence:
+
+1. **Initial value assignment:** the property is assigned its initialization value,
+   or its default value if one is not specified. If a setter exists, it is not used.
+
+2. **``_init()`` assignment:** the property's value is replaced by any assignments
+   made in ``_init()``, triggering the setter.

+3. **Exported value assignment:** an exported property's value is again replaced by
