How to Set Up Server Spawns and Global Passwords

Server operators can secure entry points, protect coordinates, and establish universal access credentials using administrative commands.

Setting the Authentication Spawn

To protect player coordinates and prevent unauthenticated users from seeing base locations upon login, configure a temporary holding spawn:

1.

2. Run /auth setSpawn [dimension id x y z yaw pitch] to set the temporary coordinates, orientation, and dimension.

3. Unauthenticated players will be held at this location until they successfully run /login or /register, after which coordinate protection resolves.

Configuring Global Passwords and Reloads

If you are running a private server and want a single shared password for all joining members:

1. Open chat as an operator and execute /auth setGlobalPassword <password>. If the password uses spaces or special characters, enclose it in quotes.

2. After making changes or modifying configuration files, apply your updates without restarting the server by running /auth reload.

3. Ensure companion mods like LuckPerms or Vanish are running if you wish to leverage role contexts or hide unauthenticated players automatically.
