The World Outliner panel displays all of the Actors within the scene in a hierarchical tree view. Actors can be selected and modified directly from the World Outliner. You can also use the Info drop down menu to display an extra column that shows Levels, Layers, or ID Names.
When the Level Editor is in Play mode or Simulate mode, the World Outliner may display Actors that are dynamically spawned from gameplay code or from Blueprints, in addition to the existing Actors.
