FakePlayers
Change your online player count and trick server lists!
FakePlayers
Manipulate and modify your server's online player count. It even tricks server lists! If you want to make your server more popular by creating the illusion of many players and you have no ethics, then this is the plugin for you. Here are some pictures of what it is capable of.
Installation
FakePlayers requires PingAPI to work properly. To install FakePlayers simply download it and drag the jar file into your plugin as well as PingAPI's jar. PingAPI will not affect your server at all. It is simply a library that helps developers.
Configuration
Enabled: true Add Real Players: true Online Players: 582 Max Players: 1000
To enable FakePlayers simply set Enabled to true. The "Add Real Players" option will add the amount of players who are actually online to the fake total and display that on the server list. The other two options are self explanatory.

@twanneke8 Ill look into it soon. Currently I am using ProtocolLib, but I am in the process of getting rid of the dependency. Ill see if I come across this issue.
@Skionz
I tested this as well, all though it still requests the server data, it can somehow find out the legit players. Its open source, so feel free to look it up (I haven't). Anyway, I think my test plugin does the same as this plugin (Modify the server info packet) and it didn't work on there. We did test server lists, and some work, some others don't.
@twanneke8 Pretty sure it works with server lists. I just tried it on that site as well.
Are you sure this works with server lists?
Assuming that you are only edditing the OUT_SERVER_INFO packet, I do not think you can trick queries like https://dinnerbone.com/minecraft/tools/status/ with it. And probably all of the big list use it to avoid this exploid.
A feature that could add fake names to the TAB list could complement the fake number shown?
could you release a 1.7 update please?
@CaptainLink_ It will only go to the top of the list if the list orders servers by most online players.
@Skionz
How did you make it so that it flies to the top of the list? Will it automatically happen when the server is pinged? Why don't other Fake player plugins do this? ;o
@WildZassian Thanks! It would be great if you were to make a youtube video on it.
@CadeCEB Yes it tricks queries into believing you have more players then you actually do.
Oh my god I have wanted this FOREVER tell me, if you update the count, is it still a number? For queries to actually compute with?

Best F** plugin ever!! You sir, are a genius. I say that best application for this awesome plugin is the server list. Amazing work, between this and citizens we can seriously create some massive fake trolls. This is my second favorite plugin ever, only behind punishmental, if I ever find the time, I will definaty do a YT spotlight for this.
Saw this on mc-market, and you were charging. im happy its free now. will test this plugin out now, hoping its good
@Trolldood3
Yep. It makes everything a lot easier.
ProtocolLib?
@Skionz
Ah, ok
@justin393
It shouldn't. The plugin simply modifies the ping packet when the server is pinged.
Just out of curiosity. Say I was making a plugin, and I called Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers(); would it return the fake players in the collection as well?
