Fakeplayer Chunkloader
by ilyasnsir1
Fakeplayer Chunkloader keeps chunks loaded through fake players, so farms and automated systems keep running while no real player is nearby.
What it does
Players add a fake player at any location they want to keep loaded, by typing fakeplayer add or fp add in chat. The mod then keeps those chunks active and offers live HUDs, a chunk map and monitoring that does not depend on real players being online. Configuration is created automatically the first time a player is added, and the main file sits in chunkloader/config.json.
Two operating modes are available. Fakeplayer mode spawns fake players and simulates the area around them, while Chunkplayer mode uses chunk tickets only. A Mob Target option, off by default, lets mobs aggro and pathfind toward fake players, which suits AFK farms. Commands require OP rights, and OPs can grant the fakeplayer permission to other players. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 17 release versions, 1.21 – 26.3, and requires Fabric API on Fabric. It runs on client and server, and the code is all rights reserved, not open source.
Key features
Automatic chunk loading
Fake players keep the chunks around them loaded, so machines and farms run while the player is away.
Dual operating modes
Fakeplayer mode adds mob spawning and simulation distance, while Chunkplayer mode uses chunk tickets only.
Interactive chunk map
A terrain-rendered map shows loaded chunks with color-coded markers, and controls adjust radius and switch modes.
Customizable panel colors
A live color editor and custom skin PNGs let each world set its own panel look, with settings kept on the server.
Resilient settings storage
Each world stores its settings in one file, which keeps backups and can restore itself after a bad edit.
