# Setting up Item Reactions

Item Reactions allow your Items to actually do something, rather than just do nothing. By default, the inventory system comes with 5 default reactions:

* Use
* Equip
* Unequip
* Drop
* Remove/Delete

Depending on what you are allowing your item to do, you will need to do the following:

When setting each reaction, you need to feed keywords to the reaction (These should be set up by default when creating a new item):\ <br>

You can then set the standard reactions for each under: Malbers -> Inventory

An example of what you can do is:<br>

Here on my meat GameObject, when used, I want it to give health back to the player. So I am using Multiple reactions to achieve this. I first set my Use Item Reaction as per above. Following this I am setting a Stats reaction whereby I add 10 to the health of the Reactor. The reactor in this instance is the one who the inventory is tied to.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://malbersanimations.gitbook.io/animal-controller/basic-setup-instructions/creating-a-new-item/setting-up-item-reactions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
