the suggestion, adding a new tab in singleplayer world creation menu where you select what biome you spawn in when you enter middle earth you would spawn in the midpoint between the north/south east/west borders, prioritizing the midpoint between north/south.

biomes with many sub biomes such as mordor would include the sub biomes in the calculation of the spawnpoint, though you could choose to spawn in sub biomes via the same tab on the menu.

some biomes and sub biomes such as the mordor mountians, island, the sea and melentramia (sorry if i butchered the spelling) would not be able to be picked they either A, have no defined border, B are spread out in small islands across the world, C have very little content and/or no waypoints or D are secret.

a varient is that when you enter middle earth you see the map screen and can select the exact location of spawning.

biomes such as mordor and the woodland relm would have a warning saying "the npc's in this biome are hostile from the start, it is reccomended that you do not spawn here unless you are OK with being attacked 24/7". there will also be a message saying "the shire is the reccomended spawn for new players as it is safe and has lots of supplies that you can use to stock up for your travels across middle earth"

on servers the owner of the server would set the server spawn.

FAQ

what about speechbanks? no, just, no, that would take forever to put in, sorry but this is not a suggestion that is built for immersion.

cant you just m tp with commands? yes, but this is more of a quality of life feature and cuts down on the player legwork, also what if your doing a pure survival run without commands turned on?

what if i want to just spawn in the shire? fine by me, the setting defaults to shire anyways so no need to mess around with it.

remember this suggestion is personal choice and might not be for everybody but for veterans like me who want to just get to wherever i want to go without needing to trudge across middle earth this would be awesome One of your FAQ makes no sense at all. I will reiterate that you can just m tp which is an already existing solution to this issue. You can do a pure survival run with commands it really isnt hard. Use that one command once and then never use a command again. It is not rocket science. Coding this would take time, time that should not be spent on minor things that can already be done very easily. That time should be used towards new features, mobs, factions, etc. Not towards creating a useless feature, the purpose of which can already be easily achieved. What about servers that have no commands? Or what if you want to do Hardcore?
