Summary
Changing the spawn location on a Project Zomboid server can provide a new and fresh start for players who have already explored the surrounding area and may be looking for a new challenge. It can also provide access to spawn locations from custom maps. If the previous spawn location was too difficult or easy, changing it to a new site with different challenges can provide everyone with a more even playing field.
