All Border 
Smart world borders for ambitious survival servers

AllBorder keeps every world border in sync, punishes intruders fairly, shows stylish warning particles, and even grows the playable area automatically. Designed for modern Paper / Purpur / Spigot servers (1.15.x – 1.21.x), it brings quality-of-life controls for staff while protecting players from sudden void falls or laggy chunk edges.
😎 Features
🌍 Per-world border sessions
size, center, enable/disable state, and punishment rules persist across restarts.

🚧 Configurable punishments
choose instant teleport to spawn or gentle damage ticks, with a customizable grace margin.

⭕ Auto-expansion
grow the world by a fixed number of blocks every interval until a defined cap.

✨ Live visuals
particle walls (default SPELL_WITCH) follow players approaching the limit, with adjustable color, spread, and spacing.

🛡️ Safe teleports
punishment teleports always target the top safe block at spawn to prevent suffocation.
⚙️ Console-aware config
commands from console target a configurable world, with optional pre-tracked world entries.
🧊 Cooldown-aware punishments
repeated violations respect a configurable cooldown to avoid spam.
