For use you need to return something from ObjectCaps() Either or on FCAP_IMPULSE_USE or FCAP_ONOFF_USE depending on the type of behavior you want with respect to the +USE key.
Also, if you call the function Use() you won't be able to SetUse() to anything else. The base class function Use() is what implements that functionality (same goes for Touch() and Think()). For Touch you just override StartTouch/EndTouch or Touch, or do a SetTouch(OnTouch) and you'll get called.
