How-To: Override Which Option Is Chosen

Goal: change which option fires when several are in range, instead of the default focused pick.

The default

Pressing interact acts on CurrentOptions[0] - the scan task's focused target (closest to the cursor, or first along the aim).

Implement the instigator hook

ICrimsonInteractionInstigator (CrimsonCommon) is the decoupled arbitration hook: ChooseBestInteractionOption(Query, Options) returns the winning option. Call it from your interact ability's press handler before firing - one Implements check. (CrimsonCore's prebuilt ability calls it automatically.)

On the pawn/controller: add interface 'Crimson Interaction Instigator', override 'Choose Best Interaction Option', and return your preferred option from the Options array. In GA_Interact's press path, call Choose Best Interaction Option (message call on the avatar) before Trigger Interaction Option.

Verify

With two interactables in range, your hook decides which one the press acts on; remove the interface call and it reverts to the closest/aimed-at target.
