Pickup items.

Pickup is the base class of actors that when touched by an appropriate pawn, will create and place an Inventory actor in that pawn's inventory chain. Each pickup class has an associated inventory class (its InventoryType). Pickups are placed by level designers. Pickups can only interact with pawns when in their default Pickup state. Pickups verify that they can give inventory to a pawn by calling the GameInfo's PickupQuery() function. After a pickup spawns an inventory item for a pawn, it then queries the GameInfo by calling the GameInfo's ShouldRespawn() function about whether it should remain active, enter its Sleep state and later become active again, or destroy itself.

When navigation paths are built, each pickup has an InventorySpot (a subclass of NavigationPoint) placed on it and associated with it (the Pickup's MyMarker== the InventorySpot, and the InventorySpot's markedItem == the pickup).
