Border like Battle Royale
by Daniil_Might
Border like Battle Royale adds a border-shrinking command that lets a server owner close the world border in steps, a common pattern in battle royale and hardcore games.
What it does
The mod provides a borderstart command that shrinks the world border gradually. Its parameters set how many blocks the border loses in each step, how many seconds each shrink takes, and how long the pause between shrinks lasts. Once started, the shrinking continues on its own according to those settings, so the server owner does not have to keep stepping the border by hand.
Players are told in chat when the border begins to shrink and when it reaches its final size. The mod is aimed at survival servers that want a more dynamic and competitive setting, for example a Perfect UHC scenario where players are forced into closer encounters. Because the border closes in, players are pushed together over time.
The mod runs with the Fabric or Forge loader, and either side can run it while neither needs it. Files exist for 1.16.5, 1.18.2 and 1.20.1, with 0.2 for 1.20.1 as the latest file. The code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.
