Week 15 - Final Submission

Companion Robot Final Submission
For the summative hand in I decided to work a bit more on the Companion Robot project, mainly by creating a warehouse environment. I kept it simple for time and budget limitations. Below are images of the environment creation process

Furthermore I improved the robot's flying behaviour slightly, by changing the way it adjusts z location.
Now, instead of trying to stay a certain distance above the ground the Robot takes the Players Z location and tries to adjust to that height. It still traces down, though, to not move through the floor. The obstacle avoiding mechanism still doesn’t work the way I want it to and occasionally the Robot gets stuck or moves through objects. I’d probably have to revisit the entire system.

Improved Update Z Location BP Function

Unfortunately I wasn't able to do anything with the legs, since I know too little about animation blueprints in Unreal and after some experimentation decided to focus on the environment instead.
