Not sure exactly where to put this. But after watching some streamers, I wanted to try just a vanilla game for once, no mods or anything. The world border idea is what intrigued me but I have no idea how to go about it. From what I saw, I wanted to try the same as my own personal experience. Aka starting a single player world while only having say, having a large world bordered off area. 500 blocks? Whatever is good enough for one day. That expands slowly. like one block everyday or so. Seems like an interesting thing to just try. Something to make me want to try survival and vanilla again. Ive been getting bored of mods.
First you must play in the latest snapshot (recommended) 14w30c
then you type when you start wthe world WITH cheats enabled /worldborder center (X) (Z) (type in the place you want the center to be)
then you type /worldborder set [diameter] when diameter is how big the border is you want 500 so type 500
and lastly type /worldborder add [diameter] [time] Where the diameter is when the Max has reached let say you want a world as big as 6000 blocks so write 6000 and then write a Very big number on time If you want do the math on how much will it take for 1 block per day to reach 6000 Big world. Good luck and have fun surviving
