I dunno; to me it seems that it would be just as easy to componentize cEntity as cPawn. We might as well do the entire system instead of part of it with a chance of doing the rest in the future. I've been looking at the code, and cPawn doesn't really do much. We might as well get rid of it along with cAgressiveMonster and the rest.
If anything, we could just check to see if the entity can take the pickup or the exp orb. It wouldn't be that hard. We would just add a virtual function in the cComponent class that can be overwritten to determine whether or not it can accept the pickup/exp, and if it can to do so. Something like 'OnPickup'.
Well, if we want to move to cPawn, we can just change which one we are using. I've opened a branch and started just some very basic coding. If anyone can think of any virtual hooks that need to be implemented, please feel free to add to it.
