Bedrock World Border

BedrockWorldBorder v2.0.0 Release Notes

🎉 Major Update: Complete Rewrite with Modern Bedrock API

This is a complete rewrite of BedrockWorldBorder using the latest Minecraft Bedrock scripting APIs,
bringing professional-grade world border functionality to your server.

🚀 New Features

Modern Command System

• Proper Slash Commands: Replaced chat-based !wb commands with official /worldborder: slash commands
• Autocomplete Support: Full parameter suggestions for dimensions (all, overworld, nether, end) and
  settings
• No Cheats Required: Commands work with cheatsRequired: false - no need to enable cheats

Smart Teleportation System

• Sound Feedback: Players hear audio cues (random.orb) when hitting world borders
• Perfect Facing Direction: Players face toward world center (0,0) when teleported back
• Intelligent Y-Level Preservation:
  • Maintains original Y coordinate when safe
  • Searches for nearest safe air blocks when needed
  • Respects players in void or above build height
  • Never forces players to arbitrary "safe" elevations

Advanced Input Validation

• Minimum Border Size: 100 blocks minimum to prevent performance issues
• Maximum Warning Distance: 50 blocks maximum for optimal performance
• Cross-Validation: Prevents invalid configurations (e.g., warning distance larger than border size)
• Smart Error Messages: Clear feedback when settings conflict

🔧 Improvements

Permission System

• Op+ Permissions: Uses native Bedrock permission levels instead of tags
• No Setup Required: Works immediately without tag commands
• Better Security: Integrated with Minecraft's permission system

Performance & Reliability

• Optimized Checking: Monitors players every 0.5 seconds (10 ticks) for responsive enforcement
• Robust Persistence: Configuration saves reliably with error handling
• Clean Logging: Single success message on load, minimal console spam

User Experience

• Color-Coded Status: Green for enabled, red for disabled, blue for values
• Better Help System: Context-aware help showing available commands based on permissions
• Improved Feedback: Clear success/error messages for all operations

📋 Commands (Updated)
