SpawnAuth

SpawnAuth works with AuthMe or nLogin to keep unauthenticated players away from the main world until they log in. It saves the player's original location before teleporting them to a temporary spawn and restores it after successful authentication.

The plugin is designed to replace the built-in spawn/limbo handling of AuthMe and nLogin, which can cause issues such as players getting stuck at spawn, spawning in the wrong place after death, or other authentication-related edge cases. It is recommended to disable those features when using SpawnAuth.

Features

• Supports AuthMe, nLogin, and OpeNLogin.
• Saves and restores the player's original location after login.
• Two spawn modes:
  • vanilla – teleports players to the configured world and scatters them around its spawn using the respawn_radius gamerule.
  • fixed – teleports players to a fixed location, usually in a dedicated void world.
• All dimensions (overworld, nether, end) use the same configured world — no per-dimension config.
• Optional automatic creation of a void world when using fixed mode.

Config

# World used when spawn-mode is "vanilla".
# Players are scattered around the world's natural spawn point using the
# respawn_radius gamerule. Set /gamerule respawn_radius <value>
# to control the scatter distance (0 = no scatter, exact spawn).
# All dimensions (overworld, nether, end) use this single world.
# If you need per-dimension worlds, this is no longer supported.
worlds:
  overworld: world

# How to choose the spawn point for unauthenticated players:
#   vanilla  - place the player in the configured world and scatter
#              them around its spawn using the respawn_radius gamerule.
#   fixed    - place the player in the void world (generation.world)
#              at the exact coordinates specified under generation.fixed-spawn.
spawn-mode: vanilla

# Settings for the auto-generated limbo void world. Only used when
# spawn-mode is "fixed".
generation:
  # Name of the limbo void world (used when spawn-mode: fixed).
  world: limbo

  # If true, automatically creates the void world when it doesn't exist.
  # The void world is always created as an overworld-type world with a small
  # platform at the fixed-spawn coordinates.
  create: false

  # Fixed spawn coordinates (used when spawn-mode: fixed).
  fixed-spawn:
    x: 7
    y: 70
    z: 7
    yaw: 0
    pitch: 0

  # Radius of the stone/grass platform around the fixed spawn in the
  # auto-generated void world. Ignored when using existing worlds.
