About this Mod
Adds random spawn points and bonus chests for each player in Minecraft!
You have to disable "Bonus Chest" to make the mod/datapack work!
Features
🌎 Random Spawn
Say goodbye to predictability! With ChestRoulette random spawn, each new beginning in Minecraft is a completely fresh adventure. Explore unknown lands and uncover new challenges as you are launched into unexpected locations across the world.
Use the command "/function cr:random" so that all players currently online are taken to a new location.
🧰 Bonus Chest for everyone
Kickstart your journey with a personal surprise! With ChestRoulette, each player is greeted with their own bonus chest.
✨ Compatibility
I recommend the datapack Various Starting Loot. It adjusts the bonus chest loot based on the initial biome. Compatible with Terralith biomes.

ChestRoulette officially supports datapack, fabric, forge, quilt for Minecraft 1.20.5, 1.20.4, 1.20.3. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with ChestRoulette – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 6 GB (per 5 players). Use /spark profiler to check if ChestRoulette consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
