Minecraft plugin EssentialsSpawn

🔌 About EssentialsSpawn

EssentialsSpawn is the spawn-management module of the EssentialsX suite. It provides server-side control over where players appear when they join, respawn, or use spawn-related features, and is distributed as a separate module alongside the core EssentialsX package.

🎯 Purpose

The module centralizes spawn behavior so server administrators can configure global and per-world spawn locations and provide different spawn behavior for player groups or ranks. It is intended for server owners and admins who need consistent and configurable spawn/respawn handling on Bukkit-compatible servers.

⚙️ Features

• Manage and set world spawn locations from the EssentialsX suite.
• Support for group- or rank-specific spawn locations (group detection integrates with Vault and a supported permissions plugin).
• Configurable spawn/respawn behavior (join and respawn handling is controlled by module configuration).
• Distributed as a modular addon to the main EssentialsX project so it can be updated independently of other modules.

🧩 Who It Is For

• Survival / SMP servers that need controlled player spawn behavior.
• Network hubs and multi-world servers that require per-world spawn settings.
• Servers using EssentialsX that want modular spawn management separate from the core plugin.

🏗️ Example Use Cases

• A hub world provides a different spawn than each game world so players always arrive at the intended hub area.
• A server assigns different spawn points for different player groups (for example, staff vs regular players) using group detection provided via Vault.
• Administrators customize respawn handling so beds and global spawns behave according to server rules.

⚙️ Installation

📥 Setup

• Download the official EssentialsSpawn module jar that matches your EssentialsX core version.
• Place the jar in your server plugins/ directory.
• Restart the server and check the server console/logs to confirm the module loaded.

📦 Dependencies

• EssentialsSpawn is a module for the EssentialsX suite and requires the matching EssentialsX core modules.
• Vault is required for group-prefix/group-detection integration.
• A permissions plugin (examples: LuckPerms) is recommended so group-specific spawn detection works correctly.

🧠 Technical Notes

• EssentialsSpawn is built to run on CraftBukkit/Spigot/Paper server software when used as part of EssentialsX.
• EssentialsX (and its modules) require Java 8 or newer and Vault for some integrations; the EssentialsX project recommends using LuckPerms for permissions and groups.
• The module is released and maintained as part of the EssentialsX project; updates are provided alongside other EssentialsX module releases.

🤝 When This Plugin Is Useful

If you run an EssentialsX-powered server and need reliable, configurable spawn and respawn behavior (per-world or group-based), EssentialsSpawn provides a focused module to manage that behavior while integrating with Vault and your permissions system.
