Description
This plugin is intended to efficiently provide a border for each of your worlds, which only people granted special bypass access are allowed beyond. These borders can be round/elliptic or square/rectangular. As the plugin has been written with performance as the most important goal, it should have no performance impact on your server. Additional world trimming and filling commands are available as well.
Older plugins which originally inspired the creation of this one: rBorder and BorderGuard.
Features
- You can set up a separate border for each world, but only one border per world.
- You can have either round/elliptic or square/rectangular borders. Square/rectangular borders are slightly higher performance, round/elliptic borders make for nicer display maps. Different worlds can have different border shapes if you so choose.
- Configuration and border setup is done completely using commands in-game or through the server console. No need to ever edit the config file directly.
- Support for all permission plugins which interface with Bukkit's built-in "superperms" permission system.
- You can fully generate (fill) your world all the way to the border, filling in any missing chunks, including a configurable buffer zone just outside your border.
- You can trim off any world chunks beyond the border, getting rid of extraneous parts, with a configurable buffer zone left just outside your border.
- You can use a bypass command to allow specific players to go beyond all borders.
- Borders can be automatically displayed in DynMap if you use that plugin.
- All plugin data is automatically saved whenever any borders or settings are changed.
- If a player crosses a border while in a vehicle, the momentum of the vehicle is stopped and it is moved back inside the border with the player.
- When a player is moved back inside a border, they will be moved to a safe vertical location if needed.
- Borders for specific worlds can be set to wrap around instead of just knocking back players who cross the border, instead sending them to the opposite edge of the border.

Of special interest are the Fill command and the Trim command features:

Borders are also displayed automatically by default in DynMap if you have it:

Please post the actual error message rather than paraphrasing it. If it has folder names or something you don't want to post for whatever reason, feel free to remove just that part.
@BSidiocy
Not caused by this plugin. See the ticket you created for details.

Posted Aug 28, 2015OMG! I love this plugin. I have been using DynMap for years and hated areas that are not filled in since no one went to them. Even with fullrender. Also, I had this one guy that always decides he is going to go in one direction as far as he can go and the map looks horrible.
Besides adding the red circle to my maps which is awesome. This plugin trims the world down to size and get rid of all the excess junk of the free minded. 10/10. This should be part of ever server hands down.

It's 18 core, not 36 ;) and Minecraft would barely touch even 4 of those cores for world generation.

What does your server log indicate? Did you try restarting your server before running the Trim, and try running it with no players online?

Posted Aug 17, 2015I have one thing to say about this plugin.
I freaking love it.
As I post this, I am doing the filling process to reduce lag and make it look good.
Looking at my free memory and watching it go up.
Thanks so much @Brettflan and anybody else who helped you! :D

Let's just put it this way: I don't think there's a CPU on earth that could handle a 1000 freq.

Posted Aug 14, 2015So basically, if I were to do 1000, it would do the lowest it could do with my cpu? damn.

WB Fill works fine. Setting the frequency to 1000 is way too high. Your RAM does not matter as much as your CPU in this case, as long as you have properly optimized your server and startup script.
Try a frequency of 100. Watch your console. If you're comfortably genning 100 chunks, try bumping in increments of 50.

Posted Aug 14, 2015@Brettflan the /wb fill command doesn't work properly i think. When I attempt to change the freq value to like 1000 or whatever, it still doesn't go any faster than the default. Please help meh, as it is still saying in the console that we have 2.1GB of ram left on a 3GB server and I want to use all the resources I can to generate in the world faster to get my minigame servers starting faster. Thank you.

There is no way to have multiple borders in a single world, sorry.

Posted Aug 6, 2015Is there a way I can perhaps make a users with certain permissions have a different border than users with another command?
