    Or shooting constantly-respawning NPCs that mimic regular players in a special area off to the side.

    This could work with a limited number of NPCs. Let's say we only wanted 15 NPCs at a time. The plugin would constantly test how many NPCs were in the specified radius and respawn an NPC every time one is killed.

    That may or may not create lag.
    If NPC respawn while a game is going on.

    Read my edit. What if you only wanted 5 NPCs at a time?

    Think about WarZ. Gunfights are going on all the time, no? At the same time, hundreds of zombies are wandering aimlessly over the map. That doesn't cause lag.

    On top of that, the WarZ plugin is constantly processing requests from players e.g. splinting legs or eating or stopping blood.

    Yeah, I guess you are right, in a way.

    I am starting to see a separate part of a map dedicated to a firing range.

    Possibly a firing range with zombie targets that respawn as they die?

    Yes. But not a separate part of the map. Just contained in the range itself. For example: Doors on the left and right walls that lead to a room with the respawning zombies/villagers. The targets could stay, no? For old time's sake.

    Thanks for helping me elaborate. This would allow you to test every single gun on an NPC. I like it. Thanks Parkman.

    No problem.
    It is a good idea, in my opinion.

    Because testing the guns on a wall is one thing, but you want to see the damage differences too, right?

    This would be really fun and give new people a chance to see what they can get if they stay in the server long enough

    Hmmm...
    I guess it's a good concept.
    There isn't really a way to see if it's a good gun or not.
