Actor "Navigation" vars not showing in the editor under actor properties?

Legacy UDK Programming and UnrealScript

In the Actor class there is this var:

var(Navigation) bool bBlocksNavigation;

However when viewing the properties of an actor in the editor, this variable doesn’t show (or the category for “Navigation”):

If i change “(Navigation)” to “(Collision)”, then it will show under the Collision dropdown. But I’d rather not change the base Actor class if i can help it.

Anyone know why Navigation vars aren’t showing in the properties?

Categories can be hidden or shown by adding the tag at the top of the class in the script.

class Actor extends Object
	abstract
	native
	nativereplication
	hidecategories(Navigation);

Here we can see that the Actor class has Navigation category hidden. Showcategories can be used in the same way to reverse the Hidecategories in a parent class.
