This sounds interesting but I have a few questions to think about.
1. If this despawns mobs that are not in a certian radius of the player then couldn't this approach be used as an exploit? If a player is trying to camp a named mob and the mob is not up, couldn't the player just venture out of the place holder's radius to despawn it? Triggering a respawn when they come back into it's radius, essentialy cycling the camp without killing anything? What about named mobs like CT that are only supposed to spawn on a schedual?
Or will the "despawned mob" basically be "cached" until it is revealed again, killed, or cycled by spawn timer?
2. What about respawn times in general? Could this be used to get around respawn times?
3. Also in comparison to WoW, I think that the spawn radius would have to be quite larger than what they impliment. It is quite annoying to be able to see a few hundred yards away but not see any mobs in that area until you are almost right on top of them.
