BotMod

BotMod lets you place a stationary bot at any location on your server. The bot wears your exact skin, keeps its chunk force-loaded, and tricks the game's mob spawning engine into thinking a real player is standing there — so your farms keep running while you're away, logged out of the area, or doing something else entirely.

Why this exists

Vanilla Minecraft stops spawning mobs the moment no real player is nearby. The chunk unloads, the spawner has nothing to anchor to, and your farm goes idle. BotMod fixes both problems at once: the chunk stays loaded, and a fake player entry is injected into the spawner's player list so hostile and passive mobs continue to spawn around the bot exactly as they would around you.

Features

Spawn named bots at your current position with a single command
Each bot renders with the spawning player's live skin, downloaded from Mojang's session servers
Bots display a [Bot] nametag with the name you give them, styled in bold blue
Chunk force-loading keeps farms ticking after you leave render distance
Mob spawning works correctly around the bot via fake-player injection
Bots are invulnerable, non-pushable, and have no AI — they are presence anchors, not autonomous agents

Bots survive a server restart: they're restored automatically on startup, so there's no need to respawn your farms after every reboot.

Commands:

• /bot spawn — spawn a bot at your position
• /bot remove — remove a named bot (supports tab-completion)
• /bot list — list all active bots
• /bot killall — remove every bot on the server at once
• /bot help — show a formatted overview of the mod and its commands
