Make sure your RPG has a heartbeat. Once per beat, update what objects you are keeping tabs on based on activity.If we had a "shotgun" home of 100 rooms, and I am in room 1, there is no need to keep it in memory and ready for use because there is no way anyone can make interact with room 100 in the current heartbeat. With this method you can use a minimal amount of memory for your environment.
