Possible?: let game think I am currently 'in the game'

Hi,

I want to make a weapon damage analysis, but for that I need two players, so two phones running. Since it is time intensive, my friends won't do it. I tried using these 'cloning apps' to clone the game and have both running at the same time. But the game kicks me from the server after a random amount of seconds after exiting the game.

I googled and tried disabling the clone app which 'host's' the cloned game and the original game in the app optimisation service, but that doesn't work. I read a bit about, on android developers and such, about android.permission.WAKE_LOCK, which, If I understood it correctly, can tell the game if I left the app and other things. It seems to can do many things. I used APK Permission Remover to take that permission away from it - then it crashed on start up.

I'm really no expert and there seems to be many many possibilities. Do you know a way to trick the game into thinking that I'm still 'in it' or achieve that it acts like that?

Kind greetings :wtfdroid:

Edit: I don't have any PC or anything or a secondary smartphone (the game allows PC emulators to connect to mobile lobby's)
