Journey Map World Border + Commands
by Sylsatra
Journey Map World Border + Commands is a Forge add-on for JourneyMap that draws the world border on the map and adds commands for creating and sharing waypoints.
What it does
The border overlay shows the current world border and its final rings on the JourneyMap map, with optional shaded regions outside the border and an animated direction hint that points players back to safe ground. The overlay stays in sync with JourneyMap's fullscreen map, shared waypoints and border visuals as the world border shrinks or expands.
Waypoint automation is handled through commands that create, share and annotate waypoints, which suits battle-royale style servers, staff workflows and event hosts who need to guide teams. Text or textures can be shown in billboard overlays that remain readable even when a wall sits between the player and the marker. Most options are set in JourneyMap's Options menu under Mods, in the JMV World Border section.
The server and every player need the mod installed. It targets Minecraft 1.20.1 only and is published for Forge, with build 1.0.2 for 1.20.1 as the latest file. It is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only and is open source. Source code and an issue tracker are public.
