Bases: NavigationSystemBase

Navigation System V1

C++ Source:

• Module: NavigationSystem

• File: NavigationSystem.h

Editor Properties: (see get_editor_property/set_editor_property)

• active_tiles_update_interval (float): [Read-Write] Active Tiles Update Interval: Minimal time, in seconds, between active tiles set update

• allow_client_side_navigation (bool): [Read-Write] Allow Client Side Navigation: If false, will not create nav collision when connecting as a client

• auto_create_navigation_data (bool): [Read-Write] Auto Create Navigation Data: Should navigation system spawn default Navigation Data when there’s none and there are navigation bounds present?

• crowd_manager_class (Class): [Read-Write] Crowd Manager Class

• data_gathering_mode (NavDataGatheringModeConfig): [Read-Write] Data Gathering Mode: Sets how navigation data should be gathered when building collision information

• default_agent_name (Name): [Read-Write] Default Agent Name: If not None indicates which of navigation datas and supported agents are going to be used as the default ones. If navigation agent of this type does not exist or is not enabled then the first available nav data will be used as the default one

• dirty_area_warning_size_threshold (float): [Read-Write] Dirty Area Warning Size Threshold: -1 by default, if set to a positive value dirty areas with any dimensions in 2d over the threshold created at runtime will be logged

• gathering_nav_modifiers_warning_limit_time (float): [Read-Write] Gathering Nav Modifiers Warning Limit Time: -1.0f by default, if set to a positive value, all calls to GetNavigationData will be timed and compared to it.

  Over the limit calls will be logged as warnings. In seconds. Non-shipping build only.

• generate_navigation_only_around_navigation_invokers (bool): [Read-Write] Generate Navigation Only Around Navigation Invokers: If set to true navigation will be generated only around registered “navigation enforcers”

  This has a range of consequences (including how navigation octree operates) so it needs to be a conscious decision. Once enabled results in whole world being navigable.

  see: RegisterNavigationInvoker

• geometry_export_vertex_count_warning_threshold (int32): [Read-Write] Geometry Export Vertex Count Warning Threshold: Warnings are logged if exporting the navigation collision for an object exceed this vertex count. Use -1 to disable.

• initial_building_locked (bool): [Read-Write] Initial Building Locked: if set to true will result navigation system not rebuild navigation until

  a call to ReleaseInitialBuildingLock() is called. Does not influence editor-time generation (i.e. does influence PIE and Game). Defaults to false.

• on_navigation_generation_finished_delegate (OnNavDataGenericEvent): [Read-Write] On Navigation Generation Finished Delegate

• should_discard_sub_level_nav_data (bool): [Read-Write] Should Discard Sub Level Nav Data: If true, games should ignore navigation data inside loaded sublevels

• skip_agent_height_check_when_picking_nav_data (bool): [Read-Write] Skip Agent Height Check when Picking Nav Data: false by default, if set to true will result in not caring about nav agent height

  when trying to match navigation data to passed in nav agent

• spawn_nav_data_in_nav_bounds_level (bool): [Read-Write] Spawn Nav Data in Nav Bounds Level: If true will try to spawn the navigation data instance in the sublevel with navigation bounds, if false it will spawn in the persistent level

• supported_agents (Array[NavDataConfig]): [Read-Write] Supported Agents: List of agents types supported by this navigation system

• supported_agents_mask (NavAgentSelector): [Read-Write] Supported Agents Mask: NavigationSystem’s properties in Project Settings define all possible supported agents,

  but a specific navigation system can choose to support only a subset of agents. Set via NavigationSystemConfig

• tick_while_paused (bool): [Read-Write] Tick While Paused: If true, will update navigation even when the game is paused
