It is common for new server developers to confuse fakebots with official SA-MP NPCs. However, their underlying mechanics, resource consumption, and purposes are fundamentally different. Official SA-MP NPCs Fakebots / RakSAMP Clients Ambient life (train drivers, shopkeepers, guards) Inflating player counts on the masterlist Server Slots Occupies a standard player slot Occupies a standard player slot Physical Manifestation Spawns a physical 3D skin that moves and shoots Usually invisible or static idling entities Implementation Programmed via Pawn script using ConnectNPC() Injected via a C++ server plugin or external tool Resource Usage High (requires recording paths and running playback) Low (only handles basic network keep-alive packets) How Fakebots Work Under the Hood
