I made a custom island for spawn and currently there doesn't seem to be a way to prevent players from randomly getting that as their spawn island.
I can obviously correct this on my end by doing something weird . . . say making the spawn island one block tall nine blocks below the "spawn point" and then using recurrent complex to wipe out the spawn point and replace it with my structure. But that is clumsy and the sort of spaghetti code modding you don't like to do.
It would be a lot nicer if I had an entry in the configuration file where I could list spawn.nbt and have it excluded from the list of random options a player could start with. My spawn island is made entirely out of Bedrock+ blocks the player can't break, it has a waystone, and a creative portalis portal.
Letting players have it as their spawn is both unfair to other players who don't get such a huge and cool spawn platform, and unfair to players who DO get it and want to remove it and build something of their own.
