Description:
An actor which can be dropped anywhere in a world and will randomly generate a grid of selected levels in random positions with random orientations. The actor also contains the option to place specific levels at specific coordinates (as well as the option for random coordinates) such as level starts and level finishes. Cool for creating randomized maps that consist of the same content, but are presented in a different way every time resulting in unique experiences. This tutorial is designed for beginner Unreal Engine developers.

Nice tutorial, unfortunelly this can not do it for my game because I have hundres of NPC's roaming arround and they only react to the nav mesh bound to the level they are in (the main one) so they will dumbly walk straight to the buildings I randomely generated without trying to go arround it... So I tookthe idea and instead of generating levels, I made a blueprint that take a structures (the structure contain a mesh, rotation, scale, range and count) and that blueprint will randomly generate the mesh and spawn it in the level within the specified range so they will update the navigation bound and NPC's will contourn the buildings, walls... I got the inspiration from your video

Thank you for this awesome tutorial Jackson. I am brand new to Blueprints (my background is Java and C#) and I am stuck on 41:20. Could someone please point me in the right direction(articles, links, videos, docs, etc.)? My thought process was "store randomized vector into a temp vector array, loop through it whenever a new vector is created and check if new vector is equal to any previously stored", however I haven't the slightest clue how/where I would connect it to the function to get it to actually run. Also, I am struggling to figure out the proper way to retrieve vectors of an array index(though this should only require a little more googling).

Can you make the level floor a landscape? I'd like to make something that when generates a level chooses from a list of options like tree can be at 15% of tiles and it can choose the type of tree from a list of options. then add grass to some or bushes randomly, rocks randomly, POI randomly. I'd be OK with pre-generated landscape, but I guess spawning on random location it would need to know the ground level? Or if the landscape is pre-generated, then I can pre-generate spawn points right? Apologies if I cannot describe it well enough. I just have an idea in my mind for a while about a world where you travel between places, and the "further out" you go, the more random things can get, so in the first few levels are relatively calm and easy, you can blue sky grass normal trees, but as you move out, the trees can get different, sky color can change, to the point where completely random stuff can happen so trees can be replaced by I don't know, giant chairs etc. What is the lifespawn of these random levels? can I save a "layout" after generated?

So I have another question (thanks in advance). My procedural level is working well (even with the grass now so I'm really happy). What if I wanted to have a "wall built" around the map no matter what the Loop X and Loop Y sizes are? I was thinking that I would need the "wall tiles" at everything location that had the following: (0,y), (x,0), (x index length-1, y), (x, y index length-1). Let's not worry about the rotating of the levels for the moment. So if I had a 4x4 map, the wall should be at (0,0), (0,1), (0,2), (0,3), (1,0), (1,3), (2,0), (2,3), (3,0), (3,1), (3,2) (3,3) correct? How do you think my branch would look? Would I do a double branch where: If x=0 then Use Wall Level Else if y=0 then Use Wall Level Else if x=x-index-1 then Use Wall Level else if y=y-index-1 then Use Wall Level end if I'm trying to visualize this in a blueprint. I think my logic is close but maybe I'm way off. I would love to see this tutorial appended with something like that. Thanks as always.

Thx for this tutorial!! A few questions though... How can I use a Navmesh bounds volume with this? I added one to a tile and it works on that tile but not when the tile is generated through the BP. Also I loved looking at where you have taken this BP with your Dev Log video and I was wanting to know if you could tell us how to do a couple of things that you never got to in this video. Probability for the tiles to spawn Seeded generation, mostly so you could save and load back to where you were I have got enemies spawning so I guess items will be similar to that but any tutorial you could do that takes this BP and adds in item spawning and enemy spawning would be useful, just to see how you do it and how you build it in to this BP. I have built this BP and modified it a bit but would love to buy it from you if you had an updated version of it for sale with some of the added cool stuff you have done with it!!
