Setting up a world border in Minecraft is useful for limiting the size of the world that players can explore. This guide will explain how to establish a world border using the Game Panel.
What is a World Border?
A world border defines the area in which players can move around. Outside this border, players cannot build, mine, or explore. It’s a great tool for focusing gameplay in specific areas and preventing the world from becoming too large.

Step 3: Set the World Border Size
-

/worldborder set [size]in the console, replacing [size] with the desired radius in blocks for your world border. For example,/worldborder set 5000will create a border with a radius of 5000 blocks.
Step 4: Centering the Border (Optional)

If you want to center the border at a specific location, use the command
/worldborder center [x] [z], replacing [x] and [z] with the coordinates of the center point.
