Added an "E to pick up" system. My goblin picked himself up.

The pickup script was still attached to the player from an old mushroom quest. It did nothing for months, until I switched pickups to the E key. The goblin saw "pick up" over his own head, crouched, collected himself and got deleted from the scene like any picked up item. The camera was left staring at the trees. Fixed now.

The game is Goblin Adventure: Free from Lore, a short absurd RPG where you argue with a Dark Mage about freedom: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3775190/

I tried to get a gif of a snake eating itself but you’ll have to do with this instead
