Shifting World Spawn Point
by Cusagine
Shifting World Spawn Point moves the world spawn to a player's location on a timer, so a new bed or respawn point is not needed while exploring.
What it does
The mod shifts the world spawn point periodically to where the player currently is. This covers the case of a player who keeps exploring and cannot always gather wool and planks to craft a bed before dying. After a death, the respawn point is no longer the old one from before the exploration, which removes the trouble of setting new respawn points by hand. Only the server needs the logic to run, while players may add the mod without gaining anything extra. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with a Data pack option for servers, across 8 release versions in the 1.19.4 – 1.21.1 range.
Key features
Periodic spawn shifting
The world spawn point moves to the player's location at set intervals as the player travels.
Respawn without a bed
A player who dies can respawn near the current exploration area instead of a distant old point.
Data pack option
A data pack version lets servers apply the same spawn behavior without installing a loader mod.
