hunt without traps

[RaymondFoxford]

Hey guys, is there any way to give a custom character the ability of "hunting" a rabbit without having to use the normal trap? for example if you press action key, the character will chase and pick up the rabbit like it does with flint, flowers, or any other item on the ground (in this case, a "quick pick"). The character is already fast enough to outrun the rabbit speed, but I still can't figure it out how to make it able to pick up the rabbit

I tried with the pickable component from this other post, but I failed to make it work.

I would try to set the following to true (inst is the rabbit):
inst.components.inventoryitem.canbepickedup

But I'm not sure if this will do the trick..

modmain.lua:

AddPrefabPostInit("rabbit", function(inst)
	if GLOBAL.TheWorld.ismastersim then
		inst:AddComponent("rabbitcatchable")
	end
end)

AddComponentAction("SCENE", "rabbitcatchable", function(inst, doer, actions, right)
	if right and doer:HasTag("rabbithunter") then
		table.insert(actions, GLOBAL.ACTIONS.PICKUP)
	end
end)

local _fn1 = GLOBAL.ACTIONS.PICKUP.fn
GLOBAL.ACTIONS.PICKUP.fn = function(act)
	if act.doer and act.doer:HasTag("rabbithunter") and act.target and act.target.components.rabbitcatchable then
		local _canbepickedup = act.target.components.inventoryitem.canbepickedup
		act.target.components.inventoryitem.canbepickedup = true
		local ret = _fn1(act)
		act.target.components.inventoryitem.canbepickedup = _canbepickedup
		return ret
	end
	return _fn1(act)
end

scripts/components/rabbitcatchable.lua

local RabbitCatchable = Class(function(self, inst)
	self.inst = inst
end)

return RabbitCatchable

scripts/prefabs/character.lua

local function common_postinit(inst)
	inst:AddTag("rabbithunter")
end

Works way better than what I expected, thank you!
