I have a feeling that mobs on live each had a path; whereas this is generally only true with named/important/well-known mobs on most emulated servers.
This would be extraordinarly tedious work with very little to show for the effort, if pathing information were even available for a_random_mob_001 to a_random_mob_1000000 from 11 years ago.
I imagine that most of the yard trash and non-nameds here are utilizing roamboxes or something similar where they randomly wander an area deliniated by entered pos and neg x and y coordinates. Randomroam is also a possiblity; this allows a mob to select a random location at a distance from the spawnpoint, checks LOS, and moves there if it's good.
Both are pretty slick.

My experience on P99 has been that mobs follow set paths rather than roaming randomly. I've noticed this with several trash mobs in areas where I've EXPed for a long time.
