`bRequiresHold`	`bool`	Whether interaction requires hold input
`HoldDuration`	`float`	Seconds to hold (if bRequiresHold)

`bBlockDuringCombat`	`bool`	Interaction blocked during combat
`InteractionRange`	`float`	Max distance for interaction (cm)
`PromptOffset`	`FVector2D`	Screen offset for prompt widget

Gameplay Tags

Namespace: Interaction.<Type> (e.g., Interaction.Open, Interaction.Pickup)
Required item tags in Item.<Category> namespace

Validation Rules

ActionLabel must not be empty
HoldDuration > 0 if bRequiresHold is true

BPC_InteractionDetector — reads interaction data for prompt display
BP_DoorActor — door-specific interaction config
BP_PuzzleDeviceActor — puzzle interaction definitions

Reuse Notes

All interactable objects reference this DA via a TSoftObjectPtr on their component
Context tags drive HUD prompt coloring and iconography
