SpawnConnect

SpawnConnect is a lightweight Hytale server mod built for HUB servers.
It ensures players always spawn where you want when they connect, instead of respawning at their previous location (for example, near where they were before disconnecting).

Why this mod exists

On many HUB setups, players return from game servers and reconnect near a portal location.
That can create confusion, crowding, or inconsistent player flow.

SpawnConnect fixes that by forcing a clean spawn teleport on player connection.

Features

Teleports players on every connection
Prevents “spawn next to portal” reconnect behavior
Optional fixed override spawn coordinates
Optional target world for override teleport
Auto-generated JSON config
Clear startup/shutdown console logs
Safe defaults for quick setup

Configuration

SpawnConnect creates:

config.json

Default config:

{
"overrideSpawn": false,
"coordinates": {
"world": "default",
"x": 0.0,
"y": 0.0,
"z": 0.0
}
}

Options

overrideSpawn
- false (default): use the world’s normal spawn provider
- true: use custom coordinates below
- coordinates.world
  - World name used when overrideSpawn=true
  - Default: "default"
    coordinates.x, coordinates.y, coordinates.z
    - Target coordinates used when overrideSpawn=true

Example use cases

HUB with portal network to minigame servers
Centralized spawn control for all reconnects
Consistent onboarding point for players
Preventing portal-area congestion

Notes

If overrideSpawn=true and configured world does not exist, teleport is skipped and a warning is logged.
Config is created automatically on first run.
Invalid/empty config is rebuilt with defaults.

Version focus

Current version includes:

world-aware override coordinates (coordinates.world)
forced config folder path: mods/SpawnConnect
improved operational logs

It ensures players always spawn where you want when they connect, instead of appearing near the last portal they used. Mentionne pas portal mais dit plusott aulieux de respawn au derniere endroit ou il eatit example pres d,Un portal etc
