Description

When the user builds lighting on a level, the Map Build Data Registry node is marked dirty, but isn't visible to the user initially. Selecting the filters dropdown, checking and unchecking a filter will make the node visible in the content browser.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Open Content Examples
  2. Open Material_Nodes (I picked this because it hasn't had lighting rebuilt yet)
  3. Rebuild lighting
  4. Save the level after lighting has rebuilt
  5. Close the editor
    RESULT: The user is prompted to save the "Map Build Data Registry," but the node is not visible in the viewport.
    WORKAROUND: If the user clicks the filter dropdown, checkes/unchecks a filter, the node is then visible in the editor
