Image of Borders

Better Chunk Borders is a lightweight, client sided utility mod that brings chunk boundaries with fully customizable grid lines. Whether you are planning intricate builds, hunting slime chunks, or making redstone stuff and contraptions, this mod gives you precise chunk awareness at a glance without looking ugly.

Features

Sleek Custom GUI & Easy Keybinds

  • Press B (default) to instantly open the intuitive, custom-designed settings panel.
  • Toggle chunk borders on and off directly from the menu.
  • All settings are automatically saved to your configuration file.

Flexible Grid Spacing

  • Display chunk borders as vertical grid lines extending 64 blocks above and below your position.
  • Adjustable Line Spacing: Cycle the grid density along the chunk walls to show lines every 16, 8, 4, 2, or 1 block.
  • Keeps the inside of your chunks clear while perfectly outlining the perimeter.

Extensive Customization

  • Infinite Colors: Dial in your exact preference using the custom Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) sliders.
  • Line Thickness: Adjust the thickness of the borders from thin and subtle to thick and bold.
  • Opacity Control: Fine tune transparency to reduce visual clutter.
  • Alternate Y Colors: Toggle a mode that inverts the border colors every alternating block along the Y axis, making it incredibly easy to count blocks and gauge depth.

Performance-Optimized

  • Only renders what you see.
