Zoning Methodologies
- Rooms - Splitting users based on the room they have joined.
- Zones - Splitting users based on what zone they are in, additionally, players only receive information for players that are nearby.
- World - Splitting users based on automatically distributed regions of one massive world. Players still only receive event notifications that are specific to them.
