The Dynamic Surface Navigation (DSN) plugin, developed by BMK Games, revolutionizes AI navigation by enabling dynamic traversal across 3D surfaces such as ground, walls, and ceilings. Features like corner assist, angle limits, and angle expense multipliers enhance realism and flexibility, particularly in voxel or blocky worlds, allowing offset navigation for improved alignment. The plugin dynamically updates with environmental changes and supports indoor and outdoor scenarios, blending seamlessly with other AI systems.

BMK Games – Dynamic Surface Navigation Features

• Dynamic & Adaptive:
  • Navigates across all surfaces (ground, walls, ceilings).
  • Quickly adapts to environment changes, ensuring AI can navigate effectively in dynamic scenarios.
• Flexibility & Integration:
  • Works seamlessly alongside Unreal Engine’s native navigation system.
  • Allows for a mix of AI navigation approaches, providing greater control and flexibility.
• DSN Independence:
  • Operates independently of the native UE nav mesh, offering a more flexible and potentially faster solution.
• Enhanced Traversal:
  • Inside & outside corner assist improves AI movement around corners.
  • Configurable corner deceleration for more realistic and controlled AI behavior.
• Pawn-Specific Navigation:
  • Per-pawn angle limits restrict the surfaces certain AI can navigate.
  • Per-pawn angle expense multipliers adjust navigation costs based on surface orientation.
• Precise Control:
  • Ability to offset the generated navigation for improved alignment and control, especially beneficial in blocky/voxel worlds.
• Comprehensive Support:
  • Supports many of UE’s native navigation features, including:
    • EQS (Environmental Query System)
    • Nav Mesh Bounds Volume
    • Nav Modifiers
    • Simple & Smart Nav Links
    • Nav Filters / Nav Areas
