Procedural Generation - Room NavMesh Spawning

 Author: Najee Jackson Problem When generating rooms, enemies didn't spawn, so the player just walked around in an empty level. To fix this, I wanted to create a spawner in each room of a certain size, but the spawner only worked in areas with valid nav meshes. My level had none in it since it was procedurally generated, which resulted in the spawner not spawning enemies, and if it did, enemies would not move since they couldn't find a valid NavMesh. Solution To fix this, I wanted to spawn a Navmesh Bounds Volume whenever a room was created, but I soon learned that you couldn't spawn NavMesh Bounds in Unreal Engine 5.

Along with the powerups, I added wall clipping so that the player doesn't get lost behind any walls. Solution     Getting the players max health to change was the first issue I ran into. I had to create a whole new event inside the health component that changes the max health of the player instead of changing the current health of the player. The speed boost powerup was easier to manage except that its hard to notice at first when you pick it up, but once you get it stacked its noticeable. For the wall clipping, I had to create a whole new material for the walls and the hardest part with that was get...
