What's changed?

New Features:

• [EXPERIMENTAL] Added a save/load system for the dungeon, made to be easy to integrate in your save games.
• Added a Deterministic Random component to provide an easy access for an independent random stream in your actors, deterministic with the dungeon's seed.
• Added a Simple Guid component to easily provide a runtime guid for your actors, also compatible with the deterministic random component and the new experimental dungeon saving feature.
• Added a boolean in the Dungeon Generator to block interactions with the navigation system (no navmesh rebuild forced by the plugin).
• Added a boolean in the plugin settings to hide the debug drawing in game (display the debug drawings only in editor's viewport, not in PIE or packaged game)
• Door Type assets now have 2 new variables:
  • A color variable to customize the color of the door's debug box.
  • An offset variable to allow a different door offset per door type.
• Added some new nodes:
  • A Number of Room Between node taking the Read Only Roominterface directly as inputs.
  • A Get Room At to retrieve a room at a certain dungeon cell.
  • A node to convert a Door Direction enum into a Int Vector.

Changes:

• You can now search the functions in the Rooms variable directly in the generator, the variable getter will be created and linked automatically.
• Door debug colors are not used anymore to display the status of the doors (valid/invalid, can/can't place) because their color can be customized.
• The room's debug drawings are now always displayed when in the editor's room mode.
• Added Room Instance in inputs of the Choose Door function (the room data input is now deprecated in favor to Get Room Data of the room instance)
• Deprecated the Get Random Stream node because the generator's random stream is not updated when using this node. You will need to use the Random Stream variable getter instead.

Fixes:

• Fixed multiple issues with multiplayer synchronization (e.g. when clients reconnect, etc.).
• Fixed compatibility of door actors with the Room Visibility components. Doors can now be used in room levels without visibility issues.
• Fixed UE 4.27 circular dependency error when compiling/packaging the game with the plugin.
• Fixed crash in editor's room mode when removing the Room Data while the Door tool is active.

What's changed?

New features:

• Added a blueprint node to select a random room with weights (non-uniform random).
• Added dungeon limits for room placement. If set, rooms will not be placed outside of the limits.
• Added a Static Room Visibility component with reduced computation over the non-static one (used for directly placed actors in room levels that will never go out of it at runtime).
• A tag Ignore Room Culling can be added to directly placed actors in room levels so they will be ignored by the room level automatic occlusion (before, only replicated actors were ignored). You can use a (Static) Room Visibility component to manage their visibility like you want instead.
• Added a Get Progress function in Dungeon Generator class to keep track of generation progress and make progress bars easily.
• Added an On Fail To Add Room event, called after exhausted all tries of placing a room without success.
• Added a Cleanup Room function in Room Data class as a counterpart of the Initialize Room one.
• Can now tweak the max generation tries and max room placement tries in the plugin's settings.
• Added accessor to generator's Rooms variable in C++ outside of child classes.
• The door debug box (blue) will now turn orange if multiple doors are on the same place.
• Now the RoomData's level will be automatically filled if empty when the data is selected in the Dungeon Room Editor mode.

Fixes:

• Crash when running in new PIE window in 'Play as Client' when a DungeonGenerator actor is in the launched level.
• Fixed missing call to On Room Added event for the first room.
• Fixed RootComponent of door actors to be able to edit them in editor.
• Fixed door actors so that they always spawn, regardless of the actor's parameter.
