About FakePlayersOnline

Add fake players to your server (tab-list and server list menu)

This plugin allows you to add additional fake players in your server player list, which you see when press "tab"-key in game. Fake players could be added manually or you can use NPC's name to show at player list.

This plugin is using library ProtocoLib to provide a fake information at server list menu. If ProtocolLib is not installed you will not be able to add fake players to your server.

Features

  • Colorize real players name in list. In addition you can define color for name of your server admin group
  • Display fake player names in list.
  • Display NPC's (provided by Citizens plugin) name in list
  • Add/remove fake players
  • Override /list command and show same information as in TAB-list
  • Fake serverlist menu to show fake counters for online players, reserverd slots and motd.
