I've seen client-server logic in client code and from looking at how some of their games like Starcraft and Diablo work I have a good idea, but fair point.

I changed the preloading code to only load what I want it to. If I'm emulating vanilla it won't bother with tbc/wotlk maps. The same goes for when I'm testing the cluster fork, it only loads what is enabled on the specific worldserver. That's about it. Performance is cheap and I don't care if it's using some more cpu power than it would without creatures being active.

The feature is there, it feels more blizzlike and improves the feeling of the game for me having stuff move around even when I'm not there (again, not have creatures get stuck in their place when I'm away for a while). It's my choice.

That's my reasoning behind it.

fair point. Makes sense with your preloading strategy too

i could use such strategy maybe since im not going to use many maps but then RAM is cheap so why ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don't do it for the preloading maps specifically, although it is affected too, but more to not set creatures active that are never going to be seen

Who cares about fel reaver moving around if you can't even get to outland anyway
