How Do I Add a World Border to My Minecraft Server?

Summary

World borders let you control how far players can explore in your Minecraft server. By setting specific sizes and dimensions, you can create a closer, more community-focused environment while also reducing lag by preventing far-off chunks from loading. World borders are also great for guiding players through custom maps, events, or adventures, giving your server a more immersive and controlled feel.

How to Add a World Border to Your Minecraft Server

1. Log in to the ChipHead Panel.

   

2. Go to the Console tab.

   

3. Set the centre of the border by running:
   “worldborder centre [X] [Z]”

   
   

   (Replace [X] and [Z] with your chosen coordinates. Tip: matching the border centre with your world spawn is recommended. You can find your position by pressing F3 in-game.)

4. Set the size of the border with:

   “worldborder set [size]”

   

(Replace [size] with the number of blocks away from the centre.)

Once complete, the console will confirm the commands were successful.
