This is my first Minecraft Datapack simple project that makes you start/spawn in The Nether
instead of in The Overworld
This datapack also give you extra 10 second "spawn protection" and also gives you "safety" just in case
if you spawn on lava/magma block or getting suffocated in a block
Do /reload if you wanna teleport back again to near 0, 0 in The Nether
This datapack probably works all the way back to 1.16 but I haven't tested it
Also for some reason none upload this kind of datapack here so might as well upload it here lol
