Add Player Spawn Points?
This mod has been an absolute GAME-CHANGER for the ARKitects' Playground map! (Thank you Songbird for suggesting it!)
I dredged through 10 pages of forums, and it seems nobody has asked yet, so I'll go for it.

Would it be possible to add Player Spawn Points to Simple Spawners?

I have the Place-able Spawn Points mod, but it hasn't been updated in some time, and the Admin console is no longer accessible. So, basically, I can set and name a general spawn area, like say, "New Players Start Here", but have no control over turning off default spawn points, the order they appear in the list, and how large of a radius around the point I want spawns to be possible.

This strikes me as in-line with a lot of the current functionality of Simple Spawners, so I figured I'd ask, lol.


My ideal feature lineup would be:
  • Place-able and Editable Player Spawn Points
  • Player Spawns can be Named, and Spawn Area can be edited (Just like the Creature Spawners)
  • Map-wide control of Global Settings through Admin panel
  • Ability to Disable default Player Spawns
  • Ability to manually Re-Order the list of available Spawn Points, or at least pin a single Point to the top of the list.


Stretch Goals:
  • Ability to set a "First Time Player" spawn that only allows New Players to spawn at specific designated location(s) following the Character Creation screen.
  • Tribe-Specific Spawn Points, was named in the requests on the other mod, and I can see the utility of that being valuable in certain scenarios.
  • Level-Locked Spawn Points, so that only advanced players can respawn in advanced or dangerous areas, to keep Beach Bob's from getting caught in the cross-hairs accidentally, lol.
  • Set Damage Prevention as built into Player Spawns to keep players from getting mauled/sniped the moment they spawn.

Thoughts? :steamthumbsup:
