Pickup

The Pickup ability will play an animation which picks up an object. This animation could be picking up the object from the ground or on a table. This ability is a child of the Detect Object Ability Base so will inherit any properties from it.

Setup

Select the + button in the ability list under the “Abilities” foldout of the Ultimate Character Locomotion component.
Add the Pickup Item ability. This ability should be positioned near the top of the list so another ability will not prevent the character from picking up an item.
