Navigation Helper

Documentation for BP_QuestMapPro_NavigationHelper

Last updated 2 years ago

The Navigation Helper actor (BP_QuestMapPro_NavigationHelper) is used by Quest Map Pro to display Navigation Trails to the player at runtime. It is spawned and destroyed dynamically at runtime and should not be manually added to the world or any actors in it.

This actor should never be manually added to player pawns/characters or maps. The Systems Manager will spawn this actor, as required, of the Quest Map Pro operation processes.

Implementation

The Navigation Helper is spawned by Quest Map Pro whenever it is required and not already present. It is used to map paths between the player and destination points in the map with respect to the engines navigation system and pathing using Nav Meshes. The navigation data used for this system is defined by the Navigation Data setting in the .
