[Zz] World Border
Posted: Tue Feb 17, 2015 2:58 am
The long-fabled World Border is now active with a radius of 20,000 blocks from 0, 0.
If you try to pass this border, you will be teleported back by a few blocks to a safe location. You will not be teleported into lava or anything like that, only nice and safe solid blocks. When logging in, if you are currently past the border you will be teleported inside the border immediately. There is currently no equivalent border set up for the nether. Portals created past the border from the nether-side will be redirected to inside the border.
The border is a circular border, with a radius of 20,000 blocks. This means coordinates under 20,000 in x or z directions will not always be inside the border. x=14141 and z=14141 is the edge of the border, same as x=0 and z=20000 is also the edge of the border.
This border will periodically expand, most likely following Minecraft updates to give you access to the new content. The first expansion of this border will occur in less than 2 weeks, on Saturday 28th of February.
