When staticmesh collision is type 2,the pawns can climb on the heighest staticmesh peaks.I used Slideslope is 0.5.

The rough cave in the pic is a staticmesh,when i set the collision type of the cave to 3,the actors can climb much less,and the problem is fixed-
they dont climb up anymore to walk on top of each others head.

Is there any big diference between collision type 2,and 3?

as a side note / acknowledgement, ive noticed the player can move up an object of unfeasable height as long as it slopes, even if it's made of bsp. it might be related.

On a side note, I'm lovin the number of enemies on screen, and those goblins are nice! Do you get much slowdown?

the small guys are kobolds by the way-i forgot to make tails for them.
These on screen are 25 monsters.
i have made 3 lod versions,so i have good framerate when they are in BSP rooms-its playable even with 40-50 of them on screen.

But inside this staticmesh,though the terrain is low-poly-700 faces the most,the framerate hit is heavy-even without the 8 stencil shadows.

Maybe the radius of the lights matter in the framerate of staticmeshes-i have placed 11 lights inside the cave with radius from 500,to 900.

But-i ve noticed that the player alone,runs much slower in the cave than in bsp rooms.
