Events are not really happening

Basic Info:

Platform: Steam
Issue Type: Gameplay
Game Mode: Online Private
Server Type: PvE
Map: Exiled Lands
Server Name: -
Mods: Irrelevant in this context


Bug Description:

Events are not starting on low population private servers / single player most of the time (except the one on the bridge in the North. That one for some reason seems reliable and even restarts itself if the player remains in the area after completing it.)
Otherwise though, unable to reliably trigger events in single player / low population private servers.
Based on player reports the Event system seems to only be able to run a single event at a time on the server.
That so far is not a problem, however in that case the events should never self-activate when there is nobody around. As an example I spent 4 hours today trying to activate the event at Scavenger’s Berth, quite unsuccessfully. (occasionally went to the North bridge one and completed that, then back)
It makes little sense when there’s 1-2 online players to have an active event on the opposite side of the map locking out all other events when there isn’t anybody around there.
The expected behavior would be that whenever the player is in single-player or they’re the only ones online on a server, whichever event location they go to should be activated soon after their arrival, the only exception to this should be when there are more people online and an actual player is doing an event somewhere else on the map and not just a half-started event sitting there on its own.


Bug Reproduction:

Go to an Event location, wait for hours as nothing happens
