Random Spawn
Random Spawn is a simple plugin that spawns players at a random location in the world on their first login (configurable) and when they die. Sleeping in a bed disables the random spawn function and players will respawn at their bed when they die.
This is the first plugin I made. The idea for this plugin came from NuclearW's SpawnArea. I've used that for a while on my own server but thought it could use some extra features, so I tried to make one myself.
Thanks to NuclearW and Bretflann for being awesome and letting me use some of their code!
Thanks to WayGroovy and Francis Fenderson for donating!
Features:
- Random Spawn will not spawn players in:
- lava
- cacti
- water
- fire
- You can set a border where the players will random spawn inside
- After a player has lain or slept in a bed he won't be random spawned anymore and he will re-spawn at their bed if he dies
- This can be disabled when setting usebeds: false in the world.yml
- You can configure if players will be random spawned on there first join. (if false they will spawn at the map's default spawnpoint)
- you can set the first spawn location with the /setspawn command
- You can exclude players from being random spawned using the RandomSpawn.exclude permission node
- Random Spawn spawns players in a set area. You can define this area per world in the worlds.yml.
- Multiworld compatable
- Random Spawn signs. Type: [RandomSpawn] on the first line of a sign. To specify a world, type the world name on the second line. Configurable in config.yml.
- Custom messages after respawning.
- Spawning on command. since 2.4
When updating to version 1.6, please remove all the yml's and reconfigure them!

So if I'm correct you want players that join your world for the first time are spawned at the lodge. And when they die they should be randomspawned?
What you have to do is remove the spawn point you've set with essentials. And use the command " /rs setfirstspawn " at your lodge to set the first spawn there. In your worlds.yml you should remove the - firstjoin making sure that new players aren't randon spawned but spawned at the spawn you've set.
Hope it helps!

Posted Apr 17, 2012Hi, I downloaded the plugin but I also have the 'Essentials' plugin, I set my spawn to a hunter-type lodge so that new users can know the rules/teleports of my server, but whenever I die I go there, I have downloaded this plugin but when I die it just sends me to the spawn I set, is there anyway to get rid of this spawn/override it with this one?
It even says the default text of 'you wake up in an unfamiliar place' but I still spawn at the place I set a while ago, this is my 'worlds' file:

Random spawning is very heavy for the server which can cause the things you see to happen. I'm doing the best I can to keep random spawning constant.
Spawn saving is a problem that will be fixed next build.

Posted Apr 15, 2012When i first spawned i got kicked for moving too fast. Second time i died in the void. Third time i spawned fine. Might want to freeze players until they get to their spawn point. Also it doesn't seem to save spawn points when you stop the server.

Is there a block forming underneath you when being random spawned? Something like this.

Okay, I need to do some testing to confirm that. If you could send me your worls.yml and tell me if you world is pre generated. I will test it tomorrow first I need to catch some sleep. I've uploaded a 1.9 Release build aswell it's only waiting for approval. If you could test that one aswel for me to see if you have the same problems that would be great!

Posted Apr 13, 2012Both 1.9 beta and the dev version you linked below are spawning me inside walls, caves and lava lakes. Hoping for a fixed version. Keep up the good work.

Ahh, yes I see. Your words.yml is still in the old format. Try removing it and reconfigure it with the commands or with the example you can find in this link.
I hope this helps!

i did made the command /rs enable .
TheFight: spawnarea: x-min: 228 x-max: 328 z-min: 53 z-max: 153 randomspawnenabled: true
not actualy placed that way but its in the same order so it keeps spawning me at the default specific world spawn.

This could be due to MyWorlds but please send me your worlds.yml so I can check it. And try the /rs enable command.

Posted Apr 12, 2012while setting up the plugin i found out that even when i use ex: /rs setarea square 50 it say yes its set , but it dosent randomspawn upon death . for MultiWorld im using the plugin MyWorlds so maybe this is the cause of the problem,or maybe its just my config. PS: i has no error in the console too. Thanks
