World border can be important for custom maps in Minecraft. They are a way to limit the areas that one can get to. There used to be an “Old” map setting, much like the “Infinite” or “Flat” options that players have now.
Old worlds would only extend so far and they would end. Nothing past there can be accessed and it won’t even render. However, the Old world type is no more. Thanks to the recent updates, it’s not a world type any longer.
For players who want to limit their world’s access, this can be frustrating. Fortunately, there are ways to set up a world border without that world type. Here’s how you can do that.
Setting up a world border in Minecraft
Method 1: Commands
Commands are a way for Minecraft gamers to effectively do almost anything they want. This can be done by using the world border command.
The syntax for this command is as follows: /worldborder center <X> <Z>. In this instance, the X and Z are coordinates. Enter the specific coordinates for where you want the world border to be.
The Y coordinate doesn’t matter since it goes all the way to bedrock and the build limit automatically.
