the problem that you are running into is the so called grid. The world is cut into small chunks and when you are not inside of one of these chunks, it wont be updated. so only when you are nearby the npc, it will work. SetActive is a workaround that will mark the npc as 'I am important, so keep the grid cell loaded and update it until I'm not longer active or removed from world'

that you see cpu usage even with 0 players online and wonder "why is it using so many resources with 0 players online ?"

and if every NPC would have setActive, it would lag too much as the whole continent will have to be updated

when you use setActive you keep active the whole area around the npc, not just that single npc

if your npc is a temporary spawn that will despawn after a given amount of time, SetActive is fine and save to use
