Paper plugin for Minecraft 26.2 that spawns AFK dummy players at your location.
Dummies keep chunks loaded/simulated (crops, redstone, farms) and can enable natural mob spawning via an invisible fake player.
Features
- Spawn a dummy with player name + Mojang skin
- AFK timer under the name (e.g.
5s,3m 12s,1d 2h) - Persist dummies across restarts (
location.yml) - Per-player ownership and dummy limits (permissions)
- Chunk force-load + simulation around each dummy
- Invisible fake player for mob spawning / player-based ticking
- Admin GUI to list and remove all server dummies
Requirements
- Paper 26.2
- Java 25+ (compile targets Java 25)
