Detailed Description

Defines the physics object that represents a movable powerup object that can be picked up by the paddle.

Defines the differant powerup abilities a pill can have.

Enumerator:

ABILITY_NONE	The Null ability. Does nothing.
ABILITY_STICKY	The ball sticks to the paddle when it touches it.
ABILITY_SHRINK	The paddle will shrink in size.
ABILITY_GROW	The paddle will grow in size.
ABILITY_EXTRALIFE	Gains an extra ball.
ABILITY_POINTS	Grants bonus points.
ABILITY_MULTIPLIER	Grants a temporary point multiplier.
ABILITY_RANDOM	Random powerup choosen when the powerup is grabbed.
ABILITY_COUNT	The number of unique abilites.

Contructs a powerup pill with a randomly choosen ability.

Parameters:

`[in]`	l	the level the powerup belongs to.
`[in]`	w	the physics world he powerup resides in.
`[in]`	p	the position to create the powerup.

PowerUp::Ability PowerUp::GetAbility ( ) const

Gets the ability of the powerup.

Returns:: the powerups ability or ABILITY_NONE if the powerup is is inactive.

virtual PhysicsObjectType PowerUp::GetObjectType ( ) const [inline, virtual]

Returns a type identifier for the PowerUp.

bool PowerUp::IsActive ( ) const [inline]

Determines if the powerup is active or not.

bool PowerUp::Touch	(	PhysicsObject *	obj,
		const PhysicsCollisionInfo &	hitInfo
	)			`[virtual]`

Called when another physics object collides with a PowerUp.

Parameters:

`[in]`	obj	the object that collided with the PowerUp.
`[in]`	hitInfo	the hit information for the collision.

NOTE: both objects must return false for a collison to be ignored.
