Custom Spawn

English | 简体中文

Custom Spawn

Chooses the spawn point of new worlds: you can limit it to dimensions, biomes or structures (by default players start in a village). Personal spawn points set with beds and respawn anchors are not affected.

The settings are in config/kineticcore/setspawn.toml, and can be edited with the dedicated editors under F6 → World spawn.

Rule priority

Rules apply in this order; each one narrows the search of the next:

1. Dimension (rule_dimension): spawn only in the listed dimensions. Empty means the Overworld.
2. Biome (rule_biome): look for the listed biomes in the chosen dimension; plains, desert and savanna by default.
3. Structure (rule_structure): look for the listed structures in the matching dimension and biomes; every vanilla village by default. Only this rule is enabled by default.

When the structure search times out (structure_timeout_seconds, 12 seconds by default) the biome and then the dimension rules are tried; if those fail too, the vanilla spawn is used.

Main options

Option	Default	Description
enable	true	Master switch
radius	10000	Biome search radius (blocks)
structure_radius	256	Structure search radius (chunks). Large values (over 512, say) make world creation very slow
structure_timeout_seconds	12	Structure search timeout
biome_step	48	Biome sampling step; smaller is more accurate but slower, 32–64 recommended

To spawn on the End's outer islands, structure_radius must be above 64 (the End has a void ring of about 1000 blocks).

Behaviour

• The spawn is chosen when the world is created and saved with it; changing the config later does not affect existing worlds.
• Players joining for the first time start at the custom spawn; players who die without a bed or respawn anchor return there.
• When an operator moves the spawn with /setworldspawn, the new spawn is used.
• /kt world structure shows the structure at your position, handy for finding structure IDs.
