[MUD-Dev] DGN - Method of controling NPC's.

You also take a much larger chunk of system resources than you need
to if the NPC were threads within a common system space (be it a
separate process controlling all NPC of a given "class" - in the OO
sense more than the RPG sense - , or within a monolithic server
space).
