Command
/setworldspawn
Sets the world spawn point, where new players appear and where players respawn when they have no spawn point of their own.
Syntax
| /setworldspawn [<pos> [<rotation>]] |
Arguments
| Argument | Kind of value | What to type |
|---|---|---|
| <pos> | Block position | The block position of the new world spawn. Defaults to the position the command is run from. |
| <rotation> | Rotation | The direction players face at the world spawn, as yaw and pitch. Defaults to 0 0. |
Details
| Permission level | 2: operators, worlds with cheats on, command blocks and functions |
| Works in | Singleplayer with cheats enabled, multiplayer servers, command blocks and functions. Needs permission level 2 (gamemasters): operators, players in a world with cheats enabled, command blocks and functions. |
| Result | Reports the new world spawn point with its coordinates, facing direction and dimension. The number /execute store saves is 1. |
| No arguments | Without a position, the block the command is run from is used and the facing direction is set to 0 0. |
| Dimension | The world spawn is set in the dimension the command is run in. Use /execute in to choose another dimension. |
| Rotation | The rotation is two numbers: yaw (left and right) and pitch (up and down). It is the direction players face when they appear. Without it the direction is 0 0. |
| Position limits | The position must be within 30,000,000 blocks of the center horizontally and between Y -20,000,000 and Y 20,000,000, otherwise the command fails with "That position is outside the allowed boundaries". |
