timed world expansion

zl.worldexpand

Content

This pack overwrites the vanilla experience with the worldborders.
Both overworld and nether start with a worldborder of 1 and increase in radius by $(step) blocks every $(time) ticks, _the nether doing so every 8 iterations to mimic dimension scales_.

By default, it does not change the behaviour of the end worldborder, but it can be changed to mimic the overworld size by toggling it ON.
Both, $(step)and $(time) are configurable via functions and default to 1 block per day.

[!NOTE]

Even if the datapack may show that it’s available for more versions ingame, it only supports PROPERLY from 1.21.9 onwards.

This is caused by worldborders being separated per-dimension on 1.21.9. Its behaviour on the nether on versions before will be the same as in the overworld,

with the notable exception of the border being expanded by 1 extra block every 8 iterations. This behaviour is subject to change if I ever add extra content.
