DefaultSpawnPoints
by will_bl
DefaultSpawnPoints lets server owners set each player's default spawn point individually, so players respawn at a chosen location.
What it does
Each player can have a default spawn point that the server sets for that player alone. Where a respawn point would otherwise come from a bed or a respawn anchor, this mod lets the server assign a default location per player. Only the server needs it; players join without installing anything. The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric, for 1.16.5 only.
Key features
Per-player spawn points
The server can set the default spawn point of each player individually, rather than sharing one spawn for everyone.
Home bed and respawn fallback
The default spawn point works alongside the home bed and respawn anchor mechanics, covering players who have not set one of their own.
Anchor support
Respawn anchors are supported as a source of respawn locations, so anchor-based respawns follow the same server setup.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.

How it compares
Botools is also server-side only and open source under the MIT License, with files for 1.16.5 – 1.19.3, so it covers a wider version span. More Respawn Anchors targets 1.16.2 – 1.16.5 and runs on client and server under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only.
