Navigation features Improvements<\/strong>: These new features include multiple navmeshes support, navmesh modifier volumes, nav agent properties, and queries, rotated navmeshes, more navmesh queries types (TestPath, FindRandomPoint, FindRandomPointAroundCircle), nav agents masking (eg. for nav bounds volumes), and dynamic navmesh updates at runtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visual scripting features<\/strong>: Users can now bind into Events int Visual Script to handle trigger volumes or collision events. There is also support for automatic node formatting which arranges nodes to make them more organized and reroute node for connections organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
