Chunk Pre-generation Warning

WARNING: BACKUP YOUR WORLD BEFORE USING /wb fill!

The chunk pre-generation feature generates and populates chunks inside the border. This process modifies your world data and cannot be undone.

Before running /wb fill:

1. Stop the server
2. Create a full backup of your world folder
3. Restart the server
4. Run /wb fill

Use this feature at your own risk. The authors are not responsible for any data loss or world corruption.

Installation

1. Download the latest release
2. Place the JAR in your server's mods folder
3. Restart the server

Dynmap Integration

This mod integrates with better-with-dynmap to display world borders on your Dynmap web map.

Setup

1. Install better-with-dynmap on your server
2. Restart the server
3. Borders will automatically appear on Dynmap

Features

• Automatic marker creation - Borders are displayed as circle/rectangle markers on the map
• Per-world support - Each dimension's border is shown on its respective map
• Real-time updates - Markers update when you change border settings
• Toggle on/off - Use /wb dynmap <on|off> to enable or disable markers

Configuration

Dynmap integration can be toggled in worldborder/config.json:

  "dynmapEnabled": true
}

Or use the command: /wb dynmap off to disable.
