🌐 Dynamic Border - Mod
A Smarter, Living World Border
Dynamic Border gives you full control over the Minecraft world border and turns it into a dynamic gameplay mechanic instead of a static limit.

Customize how your world expands or contracts over time, whether you want a harsh survival challenge, a progressive exploration experience, or a multiplayer-driven world that grows with your community.
✨ Features:
-
📏 Custom Starting Size:
- Define exactly how large (or small) your world should begin. Perfect for challenge maps, SMP progression, or controlled exploration.
-
⬆️⬇️ Growth & Shrink Behavior:
- Choose whether the border should grow, shrink, or stay still.
- You can make the world slowly open up… or close in for increased tension.
-
👥 Blocks per Player per Minute:
- The border can react to your player count!
- Set how many blocks the border expands or contracts per player per minute, allowing multiplayer servers to scale automatically as people join or leave.
-
⚙️ Base Movement (Global Growth/Shrink):
- Add a constant growth or shrink value that affects the border at all times - with or without players contributing additional movement.
-
🕒 Player-Dependent Activity:
- To keep things fair and performance-friendly, the border only moves while at least one player is online.
- No offline inflation of your world!
🧩 Why Use Dynamic Border?
- Great for SMP progression
- Perfect for adventure maps and survival challenges
- Ensures controlled exploration
- Adds tension and strategy
- Fully configurable to fit any playstyle and of course everything can be changed via commands during a game
Whether you want your world to slowly unfold like a story or tighten around players like a survival cage… Dynamic Border gives you the tools.
