FakePlayersOnline
FakePlayersOnline
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.

Metrics and update checker
FakePlayersOnline includes two features that use your server internet connection. First one is Metrics, using to collect information about the plugin (versions of plugin, of Java.. etc.) and second is update checker, checks new releases of FakePlayersOnline after plugin startup and every half hour. This feature is using API provided by dev.bukkit.org. If you don't like this features you can easy disable it. To disable update checker you need to set parameter "version-check" to "false" in config.yml. Obtain more information about Metrics and learn how to switch it off, you can read here.

@ThisUsernameIsMine Hmmm... I think I will return back this feature.
@grzesiekduch30 Latest beta for 1.5.2 is 1.5.2-R0.2. Running after the every devbuild is bad idea for plugin developer. So please use beta version, please. ProtocolLib 2.4.1 is not work at 1.5.2, but I tested with devbuild of 2.4.2 and it works fine.
Hi, I installed the plugin and added Protocollib but the plugin still does not work.
Counter false players does not change, what could be causing this? Bukkit version is 1.5.2.R0.2 Thank you for your reply :)
Plugin not is work 1.5.2-R0.2 :( Hi, I installed the plugin and added Protocollib but the plugin still does not work. Counter false players does not change, what could be causing this? Bukkit version is 1.5.2.R0.2 and 1.5.2.R0.1 Thank you for your help :)
Hey,
I use a plugin to give my player-groups different colors for their ranks, but your plugin overrides it.
Can this be changed/disabled somehow?
Thanks ;)
v0.1.0
@busch1999 @HollowGamingPoint v0.0.3 is works with 1.5.2 nice (it just inform that it was not tested with craftbukkit 1.5-R2, but will work fine).
In anyway today I uploaded the new version v0.1.0. But we need sometime until it will be approved.

@ursak I think the fake online information will not help to increase real server's online. I'm using this plugin for other purposes: changing moto (easy to made a colored moto), show rules in tab-menu and colorize moderators' names.
@stevo5800 Yes, command are for ingame only. I will think about console support in future.
DOes ist work with 1.5.2?
Is it possible to obtain the source of this plugin somewhere?
Plz update to 1.5.2
thx for the plugin. what about this idea - any news?: it would be very nice, if fake-players can join and leave automatically by user-options like:
the players should be shown on the login-browser-screen... that would be nice.
How Do u Config So The Fake Npcs Show Up
@ursak
Just on a point but this has lots of applications. Don't grief the Dev.
Imagine this scenario: You join a server, no one is online, you leave, or you join and have in game characters you you can interact with and not get abused by.
Lots of possibilities here. And it show up in game, not on server lists to fake stats. Players must be in game to benefit.
Hardly an idea to "kill" the game.
