Targeting dummys in the RWZ are missing.

Well, I can answer that for ya.
The game has a mechanic in play for when you log into the game, any active mobs in range will despawn, allowing you save login without having to be attacked. So when someone logs in near the target dummies when no one else is around, they will despawn.
As for the holes in the ground, I see this too. I would assume it's a common texture glitch that needs some attention

Since target dummies aren't even supposed to shoot back, their missing indicates a deeper problem.
No, it indicates that they use the same spawning system as regular enemies. Apparently that comes with the effect of having them targetable.

Not sure if it's the same algorithm of foes, but it's definitely the spawning algorithm of static NPCs. The ones that don't walk around. Sometimes they're there, sometimes they're not. |

Acantha, the costume slot contact in Imperial City is unfortunately using the same spawning algorithm, which is why she is sometimes not there.
In order to get them to spawn, you need to move out of draw distance (or zone out) and come back. You may need to do that several times and then they'll spawn.

I have noticed that in the day time the dummies are there. When I play in the wee hours, sometimes they are not. I have no clue .

Also: Ninja masterminds. 
Hint: their Lt. assassin strike can bypass resistance vs. a targetable foe. And dummies can be targeted. Hmmm...
It's definitely de-spawning them when you log into their area with no one else there to "anchor" them. It's nothing new. I first noticed it logging into the Training Room to test the Force Feedback +Recharge proc. I learned to log out well away from the dummies so they'd be there when I came back to do more testing. It's not as big of a deal on live, where there's a good chance someone will be near enough to keep them from being de-spawned.

Yesterday there were only 3. Today none. And there are holes in the steps. Like some of the squares cut in half diagonally making a triangle you can see through.
