your spawn point is randomly generated, you cant create your own one without an outside program.
in the newer version ( 1.5 and up) your main bed* is your spawn point
main bed* most resent one slepped in.
You need singleplayercommands. On teh command bar do /setspawn
First, you need bukkit. Install the Essentials Spawn plugin and type "/setspawn" in the server to set the spawn.
you just sleep in a bed. how to make a bed? well put three wool over three wooden planks. BUT IF YOUR BED BECOME DESTROYED YOU WILL SPAWN IN YOUR OLD SPAWN POINT!!! So that's it! dream sweat!
yes if they set spawn in the nether, but not many do
In a vanilla version of Minecraft (unmodded) just build a simple dirt house and make a bed, then when it's dark out you can sleep in it and as long as the bed is unbroken that will be your new spawn point. The last bed you sleep in will be your new spawn point, so you can have multiple beds in different parts of a very large map so you don't have to keep traveling across it to get back to where you were every time you die.There are also different mods you can download that you can twiddle with to manually set any spot in your world to spawn from.
Because that where the terraingen system set it up for you to spawn, it's 100% random as far as I know.
I believe because when a spawn is set, the x, y, and z coordinates are saved but the Pitch and Yaw, (Head position), is not saved.
If the difficulty isn't set to peaceful, mobs will spawn in creative mode.
on the next update but there isnt a date set for it right now
You may have your difficulty set to Peaceful. Monsters will not spawn in Peaceful mode.
Elaboration: I made a flat world set to creative and built on it for a few weeks. I wanted to change my spawn point to I used the command setworldspawn to move it over a little, fell out of the world, and when I respawned there was nothing around me at all. I've flown all around the area and I've yet to see anything. The coordinates I respawned at were the ones I'd set when i set the world spawn, and there was nothing at (0,0,0) either. Are all my buildings lost or am I, and is there any way at all to get back? I unfortunately don't have any backup saves because I'm dumb.
You right click on the bed. Assuming it is in a valid 'house' (fully enclosed box of at least 60 tiles but no more than 720) it will set your spawn point to that bed. Clicking again will reset the spawn point to the one you originally entered the world at.
