- FEditorLoadedActorCache was reporting unregistered loaded actors and the code that was using it was expecting registered actors.
- Replaced FEditorLoadedActorCache by FWorldPartitionHelpers::GetLoadedActorGuidsForLevel that gathers registered actors GUIDs and updated callers.
- UWorldPartition::Tick is now private to avoid code like LandscapeEditorUtils::SaveLandscapeProxies doing manual ticks to get around unwanted internal behaviors.
- TExternalDirtyActorsTracker can now filter out tracked actors depending on the parent class wanted behavior.
- Don't track dirty actors coming from non transactional operations.

- Allows for plugins to inject/remove content (actors) in a partitioned world
- Serves as a replacement for the experimental 'Content Bundle' feature
- Added new External Data Layer (EDL) Asset
- Added new Game Feature Action 'AddWorldPartitionContent' to control activation of an EDL asset
- Supports Data Layers inside a plugin (child of an EDL)
- Added builder to convert content bundles to EDL (UGameFeatureActionConvertContentBundleWorldPartitionBuilder)
- Feature is temporarily disabled by default and can be turned on using Editor Experimental Settings 'Enable World Partition External Data Layers' flag

- When editing level instance, only show loaded/unloaded actors of this level
- When editing level instance, don't prefix actor label with parent level instance(s)
- Replaced import data layer menu option by drag and dropping level instance data layers into main world AWorldDataLayers
- Removed menu option "Create Data Layer under <other> DataLayer" as it will never be allowed for DataLayerInstanceWithAsset since created without any valid DataLayerAsset.
- Disabled changing visibility and editor loading of DataLayerInstances of editing level instance
- Allow editing data layer of level instance when editing the level instance even when main world is not partitioned
- Changed font from bold to bold+italic on DataLayerInstances containing actors part of editor selection
- Removed suffix "- WorldDataLayers" on parent node of DataLayerInstances in the DataLayer Outliner
- Colorize and append "(Current)" to WorldDataLayer of editing Level Instance in the DataLayer Outliner
- Support Make Current on Level instance DataLayerInstances when editing level instance

- This will allow instanced world partition maps to maintain their own Data Layer runtime states.
- Deprecated DataLayerSubsystem since DataLayerManager superseeds its functionality.
- Added helpers like UWorld::GetDataLayerManager and UWorldPartitionBlueprintLibrary::GetDataLayerManager which will automatically find the associated DataLayerManager for the object it's running the BP.

Added FActorDescContainerCollection which can contains multiple UActorDescContainer
ActorDescContainer can be created to load ExternalFolder in various places for a world partition
WorldPartition no longer inherits UActorDescContainer and now inherits FActorDescContainerCollection
ActorsDesc are added to the right container on save based on their packagepath
HLODs generation only occurs on the Main WorldPartition Actors for the moment
Some WorldPartitionBuilders commandlets do not support having WorldPartitions with multiple ACtorDescContainer. In that case, the commandlet fails and outputs an error message.
