NPC move¶
This NPC move community component allows a non-player character (NPC) to move when triggered. Attach this component to an NPC in the scene. To make an object an NPC, in Studio go to + Feature>Gameplay, then find and add the NPC feature to your object.
Note: To enable your NPC to walk more intelligently and navigate around obstacles in the scene, you can bake a NavMesh. For more information, see NavMesh area.
This component includes:
| Property | Description |

| Speed | Determines the movement speed of the AI NPC |
| Path orientation | Determines how the waypoints align with the NPC's position and rotation. If set to World, the waypoints' starting position aligns with the current position of the NPC, while their rotation remains unchanged.
