Proto781M's Better Spawn

A NeoForge 1.21 mod that replaces the vanilla spawn algorithm with a data-driven, per-dimension spawn and respawn system.

What it does

• Loads JSON spawn rules per dimension, with a configurable search method and fallback.
• Provides eight spawn methods: default, top, fixed, portal_type, cave, floating_island, water_world, platform.
• Stores three layers of spawn data: per-dimension world spawns, per-player world spawns, and command / bed / anchor slots.
• Keeps vanilla /setworldspawn and /spawnpoint working by mirroring their changes.
• Includes /gotodim for testing rules without committing a spawn point.
• Has an experimental singleplayer/LAN spawn dimension selector in the create-world screen.

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.21
• NeoForge 21.0.167+
• Java 21
