Added Spawnpoints
by Charlie214
Added Spawnpoints lets a player press R to move the world spawn point to their current location, so the next respawn happens there.
What it does
Pressing the R key sets the world spawn to the spot the player stands on. Respawning afterward returns the player to that point rather than the original spawn or a bed, which removes the need to walk back to a base after dying. The mod is described by its author as suited to adventurers and builders, who can keep the spawn near a project while they explore or construct a large build.
The mod is a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 only, and it is server-side only, so players join without installing anything and only the server needs the mod. Files are published for Forge alone. The latest file is 3.0.0 for 1.20.1, released 2025-02-02, after a first release on 2024-03-17. The license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
Spawn point set by key
Pressing R relocates the world spawn point to the player's current location.
Respawn at the current spot
After a death the player returns to the newly set spawn rather than a distant base or bed.
Fast relocation
The spawn can be moved again at any time, so it follows the player as they travel.
Single keypress
The whole action uses one key, with no command to type or menu to open.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Exploring far from base
A player who travels into unknown terrain can set the spawn at a new site and avoid a long walk back after a death.
Long builds
A builder working on a large project can keep the spawn beside the work instead of returning to the original spawn.
Who it’s for: Players on Forge servers running Minecraft 1.20.1 who want the spawn to follow them. Server owners install it on the server, and players connect without it.
