SpawnPoint Changer is a simple app that allows you to change your spawnpoint in your Minecraft worlds! All you have to do is open the program, select a world, and edit the spawnpoint coordinates. You can also select to set the spawnpoint as your player's current location in the world. So you can just walk into your house, save, then set the spawn to your location. This program only works for Beta worlds.
Note: You need to save your world and close Minecraft before you can change your spawn. Otherwise, it won't work.
Most .NET programs should run unmodified with mono. The process of using it is pretty much identical to java if you just replace 'java' with 'mono' and '.jar' with '.exe'
Oh yeah. Your spawn reverts to original spot. Nice job on attempted smart-assery, though.
Have you verified this in-game?
It's reasonable behavior, but bed-spawn data is stored with each player, so a bed destroy event would need to scan the full player list in order to wipe the spawn. A quick glance at the 1.3 or 1.4 code suggests that this does not happen, but it could be buried in an obscure place or a recent change.
Fantastic tool.
I use it all the time and have done for months.
Works for Minecraft 1.0 too
Beds only change the spawn location of the player and will be removed when/if the bed is destroyed
However the compass will not point to that location.
This permanently moves the spawn location to where you want to be OR to your players current location.
This also means that the compass points to this location.
Personally, I use either SinglePlayerCommands or MCEdit to change the spawnpoint, but I can see how this would be helpful for someone who doesn't want to install SPC.
Um... I'm a map maker and find this to use about as useless as a fether in a sword fight.
MCEdit lets you easily set your spawn. SPC can set it to with /setspawn while standing where you want the spawn set.
BOTH let you SEE exactly where you're at. No need to write down coords then punch them into a little program.
Any map maker would have some sort of mod to help build the map, SPC/TMI being the most common. I don't see why anyone would need something like this to set their spawn when they could do it very easily and -SEE- where they are putting it to boot.
Just a quick "Thank you!" for the Spawn Point Changer.
This came in very handy when I had to change my world's seed after the 1.0-Update and my world had frozen over. Sadly, this also changed the spawn point and my compass wasn't pointing home any longer.
Now, again, it does. Also works for Version 1.1 - nice!

Just drag the folder from the .zip file to wherever and run the program. You need to keep Substrate.dll in the same folder as SpawnPoint.exe.
Thanks to jaquadro for his Substrate NBT Library.
it's called a bed.
edit, never mind, I have a mac. Is it really that hard to develop in java? Oh well...

What happens when beds are picked up?

Massive Kudos to Quintinity

with singleplayer commands.. Nice program :mellow.gif:
