## Round ID
36286

## Description of the bug
A mysterious bug has been happening lately where upon hauling someone then dropping them, tackling them, then trying to haul them again through sprite clicking yourself will disable sprite clicks on yourself altogether. This means trying to click yourself to haul will not work (have to press activate in hand keybind), as well as trying to eat fruit by clicking yourself. May have to do with eating fruit via sprite click too, as both rounds I've encountered the bug in has been in games where I've eaten fruit then hauled someone.

## What's the difference with what should have happened?
Clicking yourself should always work when it comes to hauling or eating fruit, this bug disables that and only allows you to press Z/activate in hand

## How do we reproduce this bug?
1 - (Unknown cause, maybe fruit related)
2 - Haul someone via sprite clicking yourself after grab
3 - Release the host
4 - No longer be able to sprite click for interactions on yourself

## Attached logs
```
N/A

Research direction

No source files or tests are named. Start by reproducing the hauling sequence in round 36286, including the fruit interaction, then trace the sprite-click handling for self interactions. Done means sprite clicking yourself still works for hauling and eating fruit after releasing a hauled character.
