+/**
+ * A "fake player" is a {@link ServerPlayerEntity} that is not a human player.
+ * They are typically used to automatically perform player actions such as placing blocks.
+ *
+ * <p>The easiest way to obtain a fake player is with {@link FakePlayer#get(ServerWorld)} or {@link FakePlayer#get(ServerWorld, GameProfile)}.
+ * It is also possible to create a subclass for more control over the fake player's behavior.
+ *
+ * <p>For good inter-mod compatibility, fake players should have the UUID of their owning (human) player.
+ * They should still have a different name to ensure the {@link GameProfile} is different.
+ * For example:
+ * <pre>{@code
+ * UUID humanPlayerUuid = ...;
+ * String humanPlayerName = ...;
+ * GameProfile fakeProfile = new GameProfile(humanPlayerUuid, "[Block Breaker of " + humanPlayerName + "]");
+ * }</pre>
+ * If a fake player does not belong to a specific player, the {@link #DEFAULT_UUID default UUID} should be used.
+ *
+ * <p>Fake players try to behave like regular {@link ServerPlayerEntity} objects to a reasonable extent.
+ * In some edge cases, or for gameplay considerations, it might be necessary to check whether a {@link ServerPlayerEntity} is a fake player.
+ * This can be done with an {@code instanceof} check: {@code player instanceof FakePlayer}.
