It can either be set to <em>immediate</em>, which means that the Pickup is activated/used immediately upon being picked up.

         - The @ref orxonox::PickupManager::representationsNetworked_ "representationsNetworked_" list is the networked (hence the name) equivalent to the @ref orxonox::PickupManager::representations_ "representations_" list. It links an objectId of a @ref orxonox::PickupRepresentation "PickupRepresentation" to a @ref orxonox::PickupRepresentation "PickupRepresentation". This list is maintained on all hosts, each representation registers itself (in its constructor) with the PickupManager. Since the representations are synchronised they are created on each host. The "same" instance on each host is identified by the same objectId and that is why we store the representations with the objectId as key. We can then use this list to get a @ref orxonox::PickupRepresentation "PickupRepresentation" for a specific @ref orxonox::Pickupable "Pickupable" (or more precisely a number identifiying that particular pickup, but we'll see that, when we look at the next list) on a client to be used in the PickupInventory.

This list is maintained on all hosts, a new container is inserted when a @ref orxonox::Pickupable "Pickupable" is picked up, but only if it has been picked up by the repsective host.

It is only maintained by the server (or in standalone mode), to be able to use, unuse and drop @ref orxonox::Pickupable "Pickupables" through the PickupInventory. Since @ref orxonox::Pickupable "Pickupables" only exist on the server a client that wants to change a pickups status has so send a request over the network (with the number identifying the pickup) to the server and then the server facilitates the change, using this list to map from the identifyer to the actual @ref orxonox::Pickupable "Pickupable".

-        - The <b>duration type</b> It can be chosen to be either <em>once</em> or <em>continuous</em>. For <em>once</em> the specified health is transferred once to the Pawn, for <em>continuous</em> the set health is transferred over a span of time at a rate defined by the health rate parameter.
-        - The <b>health type</b> The health type can be chosen to be <em>limited</em>, <em>temporary</em> or <em>permanent</em>. <em>limited</em> means that the health is increased only to the maximum health of the Pawn. 'temporary' means that the maximum health is temporarily elevated but will be set back as soon as the pickup is no longer in use. <em>permanent</em> means that the maximum health of the Pawn is increased such that the health provided by the pickup will fit in and the maximum health stays that way.
