I'd rather keep them seperate because they perform different functions. The
virtual
host doesn't occupy a slot so making it occupy one but only sometimes would just
confuse things.
The reason for the virtual host is to allow lobby chat messages to come from a
third
party rather than from a player. The reason for the fake player is to allow you
to
play certain maps single player when those maps require more than one player.
As of a
recent revision it can also be used to pause and resume the game, which is
useful
when it occupies a referee slot.
Your idea isn't bad, I just don't see why it needs to be changed from the way it
works now.

well first of all it is logical(no new player just bot take slot)
also when u use fakeplayer in obs it will print messages, because it will be
virtual
host and name will be same as virtual host name
so if new virtual host takes slot it appears like fakeplayer
if not - it will be default virtual host that will be deleted at start
well it is more cosmetical change but for new users i think it will be more
understandable
