Variables

	Name	Description
TWeakObjectPtr<...	Base	Base actor, if exist path points locations will be relative to it
uint32: 1	bDoAutoUpdateOnInvalidation	If true path will request re-pathing if it gets invalidated due to underlying navigation changed
uint32: 1	bIgnoreInvalidation	If true path will keep bUpToDate value after getting invalidated due to underlying navigation changed (observer and auto repath will NOT be triggered!) it's NOT safe to use if path relies on navigation data references (e.g. poly corridor)
uint32: 1	bIsPartial	"true" when path is only partially generated, when goal is unreachable and path represent best guess
uint32: 1	bIsReady	When false it means path instance has been created, but not filled with data yet
uint32: 1	bObservingGoalActor	Indicates whether at any point GoalActor was a valid Actor.
uint32: 1	bReachedSearchLimit	Set to true when path finding algorithm reached a technical limit (like limit of A* nodes).
uint32: 1	bUpdateEndPointOnRepath	If true path will use GetGoalLocation() for updating QueryData before repath
uint32: 1	bUpdateStartPointOnRepath	If true path will use GetPathFindingStartLocation() for updating QueryData before repath
uint32: 1	bUpToDate	"true" until navigation data used to generate this path has been changed/invalidated
uint32: 1	bUseOnPathUpdatedNotify	If true path will call OnPathUpdated notify
uint32: 1	bWaitingForRepath	Set when path is waiting for recalc from navigation data
FSharedConstNav...	Filter	DEPRECATED: filter used to build this path.
float	LastUpdateTimeStamp	Gets set during path creation and on subsequent path's updates
TWeakObjectPtr<...	NavigationDataUsed	Navigation data used to generate this path
FPathObserverDe...	ObserverDelegate	A delegate that will be called when path becomes invalid
FPathFindingQue...	PathFindingQueryData	Essential part of query used to generate this path
TArray< FNavPat...	PathPoints	IMPORTANT: path is assumed to be valid if it contains MORE than ONE point point 0 is path's starting point - if it's the only point on the path then there's no path per se
FNavPathType	PathType
TArray< NavNode...	ShortcutNodeRefs	Additional node refs used during path following shortcuts
