How do you reset your spawnpoint back to your bed after doing a stupid thing
I did a stupid thing and accidentally set my spawn place to where I was lost. I don't want to lose all my stuff but I went travelling with my boat and now I'm just really confused. The java help pages and all that are completely impenetrable to me, how do I find my bed and then go back to get my stuff and then go back to my bed again. (Please explain as if I'm a complete novice to computers.)
Also, where do you put coordinates in to go there and how.
Best Answer
The command to set your spawn to any x, y, and x coordinate is:
/spawnpoint <player> <x> <y> <z>
and the first spawn point is within 255 blocks of X; 0, Z: 0.

Answer 2
The ONLY way to reset your spawn point is to sleep in a bed. If this spawn point is obstructed, it will spawn you into the wilderness, just like when you first made the world.
For your second question, the only way without a mod (I think) is to look at your map (or use console commands) and write down the coordinates. Then use console commands to find the coordinates.
Hope this helped!
Edit: type /help for console commands
Answer 3
If you didn't wonder to far after you first entered the world you play in, your can always press F3 and they to walk to X=0, Y=anything Z=0 (top left of the screen).
Answer 4
It would be a bit easier to...
Use /spawnpoint <username> <x> <y> <z> for the respawning thing and you can do /gamerule keepinventory = true to keep your stuff. To find the coordinates, you can just hit F3 and it will tell you your coordinates and a bunch of other cool stuff.
If you want to do it where you're going back and forth or you have your world set to no cheats, you can get a mod called REI's Minimap that says where you last died and other stuff. But in this situation you really can't set your spawnpoint (unless you sleep in a bed) or keep your stuff.
