Achievements Expand Border

by TheMrCheeky

Achievements Expand Border ties the world border to advancement progress, so a player can only explore farther after completing achievements.

What it does

Each completed achievement or advancement pushes the Minecraft world border outward. The author describes one completed achievement as expanding the border by 42 blocks, and the border cannot be crossed until the player has earned enough progress to move it. The mod works as a challenge layer for survival and exploration runs.

The server must run the mod, while players may add it to their clients but do not need it to join. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack, across 1.14 – 1.21.3. The latest files are v2.0+mod for 1.21.3, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Advancement-driven border

    Completed advancements grow the world border, so exploration keeps pace with progress.

  2. Exploration limit

    The border blocks travel beyond its current edge until the player earns the next expansion.

  3. Fixed expansion step

    Each achievement adds a set distance, described by the author as 42 blocks.
