FakePlayerPlugin (FPP)
Advanced NPC / Bot plugin for Paper, Purpur, and Folia 1.21+
FPP spawns server-side bot entities that behave like real players — useful for AFK farms, automated tasks, testing, and NPC simulations. It is deliberately not a fake-online-count or player-spoofing tool: bots are hidden from the tab list and server-list ping, always wear a mandatory "ʙᴏᴛ ʙʏ {owner}" nametag, earn no advancements, and can never take a real account's identity.
Features
- 🧭 Real pathfinding engine — Pathetic-backed A* navigation with parkour, block-breaking, bridging, stuck detection with a hard give-up budget, pre-flight path verification, and a Baritone-style particle debug view
- 🗡️ PVE combat — per-bot smart attack with mob-type selection, detect range, target priority, real weapon-cooldown pacing, and pathfinding-linked chasing
- ⛏️ Find automation —
/fpp findsearch → path → mine loops with tool auto-equip, anti-stuck watchdogs, and inventory-aware deposits into registered storages - 🎯 Precise clicking —
/fpp left-click//fpp right-clickaim at the exact point you're looking at, walk to a reachable vantage (preferring your own standing spot) when the target is out of reach, and only trigger a button/lever when actually aimed at its hit box - ⏸️ One action at a time — tasks are mutually exclusive (no multitasking); an interrupt such as auto-eat pauses the current task and resumes it afterward
- 🍗 Auto-eat — per bot: eats from its inventory when hungry (off-hand → hotbar → inventory priority), with a configurable allowed-food list and hunger threshold; pauses the current task, eats, then switches back to what it was holding
- 🎨 Rarity skin pools — bots roll their skin from configurable rarity tiers
(
skins/1-<N>%.txtfiles of NameMC URLs), signed once via MineSkin and cached forever, with slim/classic model auto-detection - 🆔 Readable bot UUIDs — deterministic
fb07…UUIDs with the bot number embedded (bot2→fb070000-…-000000000002); zero collision risk with real accounts - 🏷️ Live nametags — three-row mannequin-style tag with a real-time activity line (idle / moving / mining / fighting / eating / searching / sneaking …)
- 🖥️ Full GUI suite — bot list hub (search, sort, live refresh, spawn & settings shortcuts), per-bot settings (general, PVE, pathfinding, skin, auto-eat, rename, danger), global settings with runtime debug toggles, and a categorized help GUI
- 🫥 Invisible to players — no tab-list entry, no server-list count/sample entry, no advancements, no join/leave/death chat noise
- 💾 Persistence — bots, inventories, XP, and tasks survive restarts (SQLite or MySQL)
- 🌐 Proxy networks — Velocity/BungeeCord support with shared MySQL, cross-server placeholders, and config sync
- ✅ Folia support — full compatibility with Folia's region-threaded architecture
- 📊 Performance tooling —
/fpp perfdashboard, history, benchmark reports, Spark integration
Quick Start
- Drop
fake-player-plugin-<version>-all.jarintoplugins/and restart. - Grant yourself access:
/lp user <you> permission set fpp.admin true /fpp spawn— spawns one auto-named bot (bot,bot2, …) at your location./fpp spawn --name Miner— spawns one custom-named bot./fpp list— the GUI hub: click a bot to manage it, spawn more, or open global settings.
Full documentation lives in the wiki: commands, permissions, configuration, placeholders, database/proxy setup, and FAQ.
Deliberately Removed Capabilities
Several capabilities were intentionally removed from this codebase and should not be reintroduced — pull requests restoring them will be declined. See CONTRIBUTING.md for the full policy and rationale:
- Player spoofing / impersonation — anything that lets a bot pose as a specific real player (real-account UUIDs, premium skin/identity lookups by player name, removing the mandatory bot nametag, showing bots in the tab list or server-list ping)
- Bot chat — bots are fully silent in chat by design
- The runtime extension/addon loader — external code cannot be loaded into FPP; integrate from
a normal Bukkit plugin via the fired
FppBot*events instead - License/DRM checks — the plugin is open source and runs unconditionally
