It took me a lot of time to figure it out but if you are facing a problem with your character walking through the trees and rocks, then only adding collision wont work, go to the foliage mode, then scroll down until you find the (collision preset) panel and then select block all dynamics. Hope this helps!

If you get the issue at 10:00 where you drag in the ocean and can't get your landscape back to its original look, go into the "WaterBodyOcean" details, search for "terrain" and under "Water Heightmap Settings", change the "Blend Mode" to Max. Then scroll all the way up and manually lower the oceans height. Hope this helps some people :)

When all the assets are set as Right click/Asset actions/Bulk edit via property matrix/Static mesh/Body Setup/Collision Complexity ->Use complex collision as simple and dropped one by one then they have collision. But even in this state when painted there is no collision.

all you have to do is go into foliage and ctrl click all of the foliage you want with collision and go down into the menu that will pop up after clicking on those and scroll down till you see collision presets and change it to block all collision. i hope this helps you and anyone else who had this problem.
