This command sets the spawn point for a player.

In Java Edition, this command works in any dimension and can set the player's spawn point into any dimension. In Bedrock Edition, this command can only be used in the overworld and the nether.

Syntax

• Java Edition

spawnpoint [<targets>] [<pos>] [<angle>]

• Bedrock Edition

spawnpoint [player: target] [spawnPos: x y z]

Arguments

JE: <targets>: entity
BE: player: target: CommandSelector<Player>

Specifies the player whose spawn point should be set. If not specified, defaults to the command's executor.

Must be a player name, a target selector or a UUID‌. And the target selector must‌/should‌ be of player type. In Bedrock Edition, the target selector should be of player type.

JE: <pos>: block_pos
BE: spawnPos: x y z: CommandPositionFloat

Specifies the coordinates of the player's new spawn point. If not specified, defaults to the position of the specified player(s) in Bedrock Edition or the command's execution in Java Edition.

In Java Edition, <x> and <z> should be in the range of [-30000000, 30000000), and <y> should be in the range of [-20000000, 20000000).

In Bedrock Edition, <x> and <z> that are greater than 30,000,000 or less than -30,000,000 are reverted to 30,000,000 and -30,000,000 respectively; <y> values which are greater than 319 and less than -64 are reverted to 319 and -64 respectively.

In Java Edition:

Must be a block position composed of <X>, <Y> and <Z>, each of which must be an integer or a tilde and caret notation.

In Bedrock Edition:

Must be three-dimensional coordinates with single-precision floating-point number elements. Accepts tilde and caret notations.

JE: <angle>: angle

Specifies the yaw angle to spawn with. Defaults to the direction the executor is facing.

Must be a yaw angle, measured in degrees with single-precision floating-point numbers. -180.0 for due north, -90.0 for due east, 0.0 for due south, 90.0 for due west, to 179.9 for just west of due north, before wrapping back around to -180.0. Tilde notation can be used to specify a rotation relative to the execution yaw rotation.
