This is probably the wrong forum to post on, but I need a answer. I couldn't figure out what to post this under, so I just posted it here. But anyways, this is my question (if the title doesn't explain anything.) I have my own MC server, and I want to put a custom spawn point somewhere. I have all these signs (w/ rules) up, but when you spawn, you don't go to the signs unless your lucky. So, I need to know how to make a custom spawn point. Thanks!
if you have essentials just type /setspawn (group)
example my group is admin i type /setspawn admin and where you're standing that will be the new spawn point for the group admin
if you want to use signs like command signs the type looking at the sign
/commandsigns line1 /setspawn (group) and that should change the spawn for the group you type using a sign
What kind of server are you running? Bukkit or vanilla? If bukkit, get the Essentials plugin and /setspawn to where ever you want people to spawn. I don't think you can do anything about that in vanilla.
Well, Idk what server I'm running. I don't think I'm using Bukkit though. Luis, I've tried /setspawn in the actual Minecraft client and in the box in the Minecraft server. They both just say "Unknown command."
Okay, that will work. I also forgot to mention something :P. I can only make 5 more posts until Sept 24, so yeah. Lol. But Jeeter, I would love instructions!
If you use the vanilla server , download bukkit , you can add tons of plugins to help your world.
and then download the essential plugin and do what i said in the first comment ^^
If you have Vanilla go to the place where you would like the spawn point to be. Type /spawnpoint. Be careful though, that only sets YOUR spawn not others. Download bukkit for plugins that will really help. I have a server with bukkit. I get lots of visitors.

sigh i have the same problem help me... how do i set spawn 4 everyone im have a normal minecraft server not bukkit or vanilla
Vanilla is a normal minecraft server. Your spawnpoint for everyone on your server will be on a chunk (16x16 group of tiles). The only way to set a hard spawnpoint (exact coordinates) is through mods or plugins.
Do /setworldspawn (coordinates for spawn point) to set the entire worlds spawn to a specific location
(you can only do it from the server console. im not sure if you can do it from opped players)
