# FakePlayers
\nis a lightweight, high-performance plugin designed for Minecraft 1.21.1+ that allows server owners to simulate an active community. Whether you’re a new server looking to jumpstart growth or a veteran admin wanting to fine-tune your server’s appearance, FakePlayers provides a seamless, “ghost-free” experience.<\/p>\n
## Key Features
\n– **Dynamic Player Count**: Instantly updates your server\u2019s online count (e.g., 1\/20 becomes 15\/20) on the multiplayer server list.
\n– **Hover List**: When players hover over your server’s player count, they see the actual names of your “Fake Players” alongside real ones!
\n– **Tab List Support**: Fully integrated with ProtocolLib. Fake players appear in the Tab list with customizable names, making the world feel alive.
\n– **Zero-Rejoin Updates**: Change the amount of fake players or toggle settings on the fly. Changes are pushed to all online clients instantly without anyone needing to reconnect.
\n– **Admin Commands & Autocomplete**: Full Tab-completion support for all commands. No need to memorize complex syntax.
\n– **Intelligent Naming**: Using a pool of names? If you set the amount higher than your name list, the plugin automatically generates unique variations (e.g., MinerMax_1, MinerMax_2) to prevent Tab list conflicts.<\/p>\n
