Runtime navigation mesh baking. Collision avoidance support. The Map represents the entire world, it's similar to the space for the physics engine, but this one is used for the navigation. The agent is also responsible for avoiding collisions. The NavigationObstacle is really simple, and it's used for collision avoidance.
