Common questions about /worldborder

Is the size a radius or a diameter?

A diameter. /worldborder set 100 makes a square 100 blocks across, so 50 blocks from the centre in each direction.

What happens to players caught outside the border?

They take damage continuously, scaled by how far out they are, and see the red warning overlay. The damage per block and the damage-free buffer are both configurable with this command.
