@Hamel903 - You need to select "Choose Your Spawn!" in the spawn selection screen, not "Rosewood".
Hamel903 13 Jul @ 8:12am 
Disculpa, llevo 2 semanas intentando que el mod funcione en la build 42, coloco las coordenadas que quiero pero luego salgo en puntos aleatorios de Rosewood, es decir, pongo como punto de Spawn Rosewood (antes de las opciones Sandbox) y a pesar que me genera el personaje en Rosewood, me hace spawn en una casa del vecindario cerca de la estación de policia o (más frecuentemente) en una casa alejada de la mano de Dios al Sur Este de Rosewood, pero nunca me hace spawn en donde coloque las Coordenadas (que también son en Rosewood), que debo hacer para que funcione? Dejare también la pregunta en español por si alguien de la comunidad hispano hablante tiene el mismo problema.

Sorry, I’ve been trying to get the mod to work on build 42 for 2 weeks now, I put in the coordinates I want but then I spawn at random points in Rosewood, that is, I put Rosewood as the Spawn point (before the Sandbox options) and even though it spawns my character in Rosewood, it spawns me in a house in the neighborhood near the police station or (more frequently) in a house far from the hand of God to the Southeast of Rosewood, but it never spawns me where I put the Coordinates (which are also in Rosewood), what should I do to make it work? I’ll also leave the question in Spanish in case someone in the Spanish-speaking community has the same problem.

@SpyKidgrand - Have you checked the FAQ? https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/3287958074/4852154959750390836/


@sebastiangarcerant091 - It is considered a "map" by the engine, that's how the mod generates the custom spawn point you enter. Can I ask why you need to remove it? I can look into the steps needed to remove it from a save file dependancy (if possible), if you want to make a post in the the bug thread here:

hi I'm a local dumb ass, how does this work?
sebastiangarcerant091 1 Jul @ 8:21am 
I used the mod to make my character appear in a specific location. Once I appeared there, I didn’t need the mod anymore, so I removed it. But now I can’t load my save because the game seems to treat the mod as a map, and without it, the save won’t work. What I’m asking is: is there any way to keep playing that save after removing the mod
Serellan  [author] 30 Jun @ 9:48pm 
sebastiangarcerant09 - I don't understand what you are asking. Are you saying you unistalled the mod, but it is still showing up in your mod list? Or are you still seeing "Choose Your Spawn" in new games created?
Red 27 Jun @ 3:12am 
alrighty
Serellan  [author] 26 Jun @ 7:35pm 
@Red I certainly can't guarantee it, it depends on the mods.
Red 25 Jun @ 10:33am 
will it work with 200+ mods enabled?
Serellan  [author] 23 Jun @ 9:55pm 
@Hauntastic - Good to hear! :steamthumbsup:
Hauntastic 23 Jun @ 5:24pm 
Apologies Serellan, it is working as intended. User error on my part and resolved. Thanks!
Serellan  [author] 10 Jun @ 10:17am 
@Hauntastic - Can you post details in the discussion section, and I can try and assist (build, game mode, specific sandbox mod used, etc?)

@Корки Бучек - B42 MP is not released yet.
Корки Бучек 5 Jun @ 7:15am 
dont work in mp [b42] crashed server
Serellan  [author] 4 Jun @ 2:39pm 
@petey - I don't know what other mods you are referring to, I only have this one. It's complicated because the game is designed specifically not to allow you to do what you are trying to do, and even moreso that you are trying to do it on an existing save.

It sounds like you are trying to load a save with a dead character, possibly not in Sandbox Mode? If you are not in Sandbox Mode the option will not be available.

If you can go to the FAQ in the discussion thread and review it, and post details about your game (game mode etc), I may be able to assist.

absolutley none of these spawn mods are working for me at all. newest update on b42. Existing save, have died, want to respawn closer. subscribed to the mods after the fact. Still only 5 spawn locations. Why is this so complicated
Serellan  [author] 30 May @ 8:54am 
@Alpha - Good to hear, enjoy!
Alpha Gamer 28 May @ 10:50am 
update, i found the issue it was an older mod that hadnt been updated to the current build and it was throwing a lot of things off. Your mod is working as it should
Serellan  [author] 27 May @ 2:45pm 
@Alpha - This sounds like it might be an issue with the Build & Map combo you are using (there is a different set for B41 and B42, which is unfortunetly confusing). The 'edge of the map' isn't expected behavior. Can you take a look here, and maybe post some details on what you are inputting and I can try and assist:

Alpha Gamer 23 May @ 10:10am 
For some reason the spawns are messed up and starting me at the edge of the map miles away from where i intend to go. Im using the interactive map to get the co ordinates
Serellan  [author] 22 May @ 12:34pm 
@Pedro - Try exiting out to the main menu and then choosing "load game" and select your save with the dead player. Are you playing SP or MP?

@JackPoke - Yes, please see the FAQ: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/3287958074/4852154959750390836/

@JimG & LiamNeeson - Thanks!
xJackPoKe 20 May @ 12:39pm 
Does it works for mp?
Pedro_1079 17 May @ 11:55pm 
I play in B41, and everytime I die and want to respawn, i can´t, I just watch my dead body walking and don´t respawn it doesn´t matter which option I use to respawn, but it only happens to me since I installed this mod.
JimG 15 May @ 6:16am 
Just downloaded it I can confirm it works with no issues so far. For those wondering when the mod asks you to choose your coordinates the X is always the first set of numbers and the Y is the other set. Just an FYI.
Fallout3LiamNeeson 3 May @ 9:57am 
@Cebo Make sure the mod enabled in mods, its only usable in a Sandbox game. Then select "choose your spawn" in the map menu section, then in sandbox options you enter the cords under the "choose your spawn" sandbox option.
Cebo 3 May @ 9:23am 
i installed the mod in a started game, but when i want to choose the spawn there`s no option "Choose Your Spawn!" is that an error? or may i`m doing something wrong?

@stormborn - Great to hear! :steamthumbsup:
Stormborn Apostle 29 Apr @ 9:18pm 
There's a particular house in Muldraugh that I prefer, in the gated community. Whenever I would start a new playthrough, I'd have to spend half an hour restarting over and over to get it. But not anymore! Thank you.
Serellan  [author] 22 Apr @ 1:15pm 
@Russian Bear - This is the default game behavior on "Starter Homes" in Build 41, and is covered in this thread here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/3287958074/4522260579669822091/

If you are running Build 42, there is a Sandbox Option called "Player Spawn Area" on the "Zombie" tab that will allow you to adjust this behavior, although it is still in Unstable.

@Slazenger and @BoBandy - Glad you are enjoying it, I also have a tailored Skyscraper Challenge if you want to go directly to the top of the building experience without using Sandbox Mode:

Russian Bear 22 Apr @ 11:10am 
What a garbage. Even when I finally managed to spawn at the hospital, it is now considered my home spawn, so it is zed free here...
Slazenger 21 Apr @ 3:23am 
Excellent mod. Works as intended. This can be used to spawn on top of buildings in Louisville for a 'trapped and stranded' scenario.
BoBandy 20 Apr @ 10:04pm 
Nice mod bro works great even used it to spawn all the way on top of a skyscraper in Louisville
Serellan  [author] 20 Apr @ 4:34pm 
@Breadstick - Glad I could help!
Timmy Burger 19 Apr @ 10:12pm 
this will save me so much time on getting the only house i like to spawn in in the entire game

@LouLou - Thanks!
LouLou 13 Apr @ 11:23pm 
working perfectly thank you

@SFC Gunny - For Build 42, you should not be using that map link, it's depricated to B41. For Build 42, you should use this map: https://b42map.com/

This is in the instructions.
SFC Gunny 10 Apr @ 11:10pm 
Build 42.7.0 and entering coordinate information from map.projectzomboid.com . You "claim" the mod will allow a spawn at a specific coordinate, and your mod does not do that, as I and others have pointed out.
Serellan  [author] 10 Apr @ 2:42pm 
@SFC Gunny - If you post up any specifics, including the build of the game you are running (since B41 and B42 work differently), in this thread, I may be able to assist you. Unfortunately "does not work as advertised" does not give me any actionable information to go on.

@ralphaguirre - If you are spawning in the small fenced house in Muldraugh, this indicates you entered an invalid spawn location or did not select 'Choose Your Spawn'. Please see the FAQ here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/3287958074/4852154959750390836/

@themasterchief67 - Please take a look at the FAQ here under the existing save section: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/3287958074/4852154959750390836/

I keep spawning in a town when I choose to spawn some where else, this mod was disappointing.

Hey does this work with existing save? In my main play through I had made it quite for progress and distance from spawn wise until I very suddenly (and very, very unfairly) died to a fever in the night. So I tried loading the mod and nothing shows up, just normal spawn menu. Can someone help? @Serellan?
Serellan  [author] 20 Feb @ 12:45pm 
@2Tipsy4You - I spun up a new thread for MP help. Can you post your question to this thread, along with build & hosting information?

I've looked everywhere and read everything you've written about this version on B42 and cant find an answer to my problem. Me and my wife are trying to use your mod to spawn in the same starter house. I added the mod in the "edit server settings" when clicking on host. The mod shows up in the spawn regions tab but when joining the game/starting the server the choose your spawn option is not there. I also went into the games files and located the server folder where I found the "Spawnregions.lua" folder for the server and the
"SerellanCustomSpawns", file = "media/maps/SerellanCustomSpawns/spawnpoints.lua"
is there as well but not showing up as a selection when choosing spawn. Please help anyone!

@D3m0nku5h - Good to hear! Probably some files didn't get updated from Steam and resubscribing forced a full re-download. I've seen this a couple of times.
D3m0nku5h 10 Feb @ 11:13am 
@Serellan i did resubscribe and is all good now somehow , works fine now
