Better Respawn Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I enable Better Respawn Mod after installing it?
The mod is enabled by default once installed. You can verify it's working by dying in the Overworld—you should respawn near your death location instead of at your bed or world spawn.
Will I still respawn at my bed if I have one set?
Only if you're within a certain distance of your bed when you die, or if you die in the End or another dimension. Otherwise, you'll respawn near your death location in the Overworld.
Can I change how far from my death spot I respawn?
Yes, the mod's settings let you configure both the minimum and maximum distance from your death location. Adjust these values in the mod's config file to suit your preference.
What happens if I die in the Nether or End?
You'll respawn at your bed or respawn anchor instead of near your death location, just like vanilla Minecraft.
Do I need to restart my world after changing the respawn distance settings?
No, most configuration changes take effect immediately or on your next death. Check the mod's documentation to confirm which settings require a restart.
Can I turn off Better Respawn for specific players or situations?
The mod applies globally to all players on a world. You can disable it entirely through the config, but there's no built-in per-player toggle.
What if I die far from my base and want to respawn at my bed instead?
Return to within the configured distance of your bed before dying, and you'll respawn there. Otherwise, you'll need to travel back to your death location to retrieve your items.
Does Better Respawn Mod work with other mods that change spawning?
Compatibility depends on how those mods modify respawning. Test with your mod combination, and check community forums if you encounter conflicts.
Will this mod cause lag or performance issues?
Better Respawn Mod is lightweight and shouldn't noticeably impact performance, as it only changes where you spawn after death.
What's the best strategy for not losing items after dying?
Since you respawn close to your death location, prioritize reaching it quickly before items despawn. Consider setting a shorter respawn distance so you're even closer to your dropped items.
